The Information Object Builder included in BIRT Designer Pro is a visual development tool used to create an optional metadata layer of Information Objects that represent controlled, business user-appropriate views of data for inclusion in BIRT reports and accessible from BIRT Studio for ad hoc reporting by end users.
Multiple Data Source and Component-based Reuse
BIRT Information Object Builder creates metadata objects that pull in and integrate real-time data from multiple heterogeneous data sources and supports the component-based reuse ability of all BIRT Designers.
