Announcing BIRT Integration





Media Extract.


“Yellowfin Reporting” today announces its version in development will integrate BIRT into its Analysis and Reporting platform. 


In a recent interview, CEO of Yellowfin, Glen Rabie advised, At Yellowfin our goal is to develop the very best in web based reporting and analytics.  Our platform is specifically designed to enable the business user to access their data for ad hoc reporting and analysis.  However, we do understand that not all reporting needs can be met through a report designer interface that is intended for a business oriented end user.  As such Yellowfin will integrate BIRT, the open source project from Eclipse, into our platform.  As with our integration of Jasper Reports, BIRT, will provide report developers with an alternative interface to develop complex production style reports – such as invoices, through a 3rd party interface but leverage the infrastructure of Yellowfin to publish, schedule and secure organisational information.


Yellowfin has been changing the landscape of web based Business Intelligence Solutions by reducing the cost and complexity of BI deployment to the enterprise.  Yellowfin was specifically designed ground up to support operational BI by providing business users with rapid access to organisational data for ad hoc and periodic analysis and reporting.


BIRT is an Eclipse-based open source reporting system for web applications, especially those based on Java and J2EE. BIRT has two main components: a report designer based on Eclipse, and a runtime component that will be integrated into the Yellowfin application.


“We are positive these new features and added complementary capabilities will be well received by our current and potential customers and partners”, commented Glen Rabie, CEO of Yellowfin. “We see the integration of production reporting as a key enabling factor for ensuring Yellowfin provides an end to end BI solution for our customers”
