eXo and Jaspersoft: Bringing Collaboration and Business Intelligence Together

What does this interoperability effort demonstrate?

eXo and Jaspersoft combine rich social features and gadget-based development with enterprise Business Intelligence. This interoperability shows Java developers how their BI applications can be extended with real-time activity streams, while business users have more customization options for their reports and dashboards.

How do eXo and Jaspersoft work together?

The eXo and Jaspersoft interoperability brings new tools for extending BI applications with collaboration workspaces and real-time activity streams -- in a social intranet, or as a gadget that can be added to dashboards. Developers can further enhance this integration, while business users have more customization options for their reports and dashboards.

eXo Platform can be integrated with Jaspersoft in minutes with a simple, free plug-in, which will be available for download by the end of this month.

What can developers do with Collaboration + BI?

Activity Streams for BI: BI Events in Activity Streams: Automatically syndicate JasperReports events and user interactions in activity streams, enabling users to see relevant information, such as newly available or modified reports, in real-time.
BI Dashboard: Display reports in portlets, or quickly build gadgets to display your BI activity streams, which can be displayed in any OpenSocial-supported dashboard, from an enterprise intranet to iGoogle.
Report on Activity Stream Mashups: Developers can mashup activity streams from several third-party applications with eXo, then analyze the social data captured over time in a single report from Jaspersoft. This reduces the need for multiple reports, and also provides analysis of separate but related data sources.
