BIRT Dashboards

 

Help Users Help Themselves

Give information consumers an environment that’s conducive to the creation of compelling, easily customized information views.

Operational dashboards provide instant access to highly summarized information in an at-a glance format. Typically, dashboards and mashups provide information and are integrated with key business processes (KPIs) and metrics, enabling users to make timely decisions based on current-process data. When coupled with standard web technology, Actuate products can be leveraged to create dashboards and mashups complete with security and inherent interactivity, allowing end users access to highly personalized views of their own data. Websites can use any of the aforementioned methods to create fully operational dashboard and mashup applications.

• Web pages that can be customized for a personalized experience
• Drag-and-drop elements that provide access to applications and services
• Internet security
• Full integration with business processes

Portlet-based sites allow users to select independent snippets or windows of content and arrange them on the page in any configuration. Any server that supports portlets according to the JSR-168 standard can be used to create KPI-driven dashboards with Actuate.

With Actuate’s new Javascript API, any content can appear anywhere in any html page. Companies can create and customize their own web pages, providing users with the information they want them to see, and allowing or disallowing user customization.

Any BIRT Report can arrive in virtually any format, including operational dashboards that users can customize to meet their own reporting needs.  Actuate portlets are “plug and go” pointers to pre-designed Actuate content and/or repository folders. Users can arrange Actuate content side by side with content from other applications and sources.

Actuate’s Rich Information Application-ready, open source-based BI tools can be deployed in any pre-existing or new development project to create a progressive, collaborative reporting environment that allows developers, report writers and end users to create and/or use applications rich in interactivity, depth, span and complexity. With BIRT at its core, the Actuate suite of open source-based BIRT products creates an environment that is virtually boundless; an infrastructure in which to build and deploy Rich Information Applications without Limits.™
