Jinfonet and Composite Software Create New Java-Based Joint Solution

Expands Customers' Ability to View and Analyze Business Data in Real Time

JReport and Composite Software today announced the companies have partnered to offer a new joint solution: JReport OnDemand Integration. The companies will co-market and co-sell the new reporting solution with out-of-the-box information integration capabilities.

The new joint product addresses customers' demand to embed reporting and operational business intelligence into all types of applications and systems. Virtually all applications can benefit from improved reporting and data presentation, and by partnering the leader in Java-based reporting with the leader in enterprise information integration, customers will have access to a powerful reporting solution that can be tightly integrated with data sources throughout their organization.

JReport OnDemand Integration allows reports to be created based on information distributed throughout an organization. Composite's software pulls information from traditional data sources such as databases and packaged applications and importantly, from countless other structured and semi-structured data sources such as XML, Excel spreadsheets, flat files and Web services.

Composite's offering creates a unified abstraction layer for data across a company, allowing that data to be correlated regardless of which application it came from. It presents live data from different sources as if it existed in a single place. Complementary to a data warehouse, EII appears as a virtual database – transparently generating queries to multiple sources behind the scenes and combining information appropriately as it is returned. The benefits are more flexibility, unlimited detail, and always-current data.

By combining EII with sophisticated reporting, joint customers can create reports based on information that spans multiple applications and sources, allowing a more comprehensive picture of business operations. With the growing number of data sources in today's IT environment, data integration is an ever-important requirement.
