Products BIRT Server
100% Web Services API
BIRT iServer is a report server with a variety of services that deploy, manage, schedule, secure, run and distribute BIRT documents and web pages. The services can be phased in and capacity purchased to support just the services needed. It is available as a Platform-as-a-Service (BIRT OnDemand), can be implemented on premises, or installed in a cloud.
Features: 100% Web Services API
BIRT iServer offers integration options to adapt the look and feel of reports, provide services to other applications and leverage existing infrastructure via editable JSPs and pure SOAP5-based Web Services APIs. JavaScript APIs allow for reports delivered through the server to be integrated in web applications, dashboards and mashups. BIRT iServer can operate standalone or be integrated with other applications. BIRT iServer can adopt the look and feel of other applications while still operating standalone.
Rich Internet Application Integration
BIRT Reports viewed from the server can be accessed via Java Script APIs, an AJAX-based JavaScript library that allows the report viewer, reportlet or parameters to be embedded into any web application. The API's allow developers to publish and reference the services of the BIRT Viewer from a client application.
The JavaScript API enables HTML developers to:
- Insert custom actions in a report output document and link multiple visualizations.
- Insert BIRT reports or reportlets into mashup pages.
- Link different components of a mashup page, including BIRT reports, to interact with each other.
- Enable out-of-the box interactions available with the BIRT Interactive Viewer.
Application Integration
BIRT iServer can adopt the look and feel of other applications, be called by other applications or act as a provider of BIRT report services to other applications including report generation, viewing, and printing; report encyclopedia management; server administration; and security and authentication services.
- Look and Feel Integration – an editable JSP user interface can be made to adopt the look and feel of other applications; for example, ERP systems or web sites, and still operate standalone.
- Hyperlinks from other Applications – BIRT iServer reports and functions can be called from URLs in other web applications; for example, to embed reports in other applications.
- Provider of Reporting Services – 100% of BIRT iServer functions can be accessed by external applications via SOAP calls to the Web Services API or by using the published WSDL descriptions.
