Open Source Is Smart Choice For Business Intelligence
,----[ Quote ]
| Analyst report points to growing interest in
| open source alternatives to traditional
| business intelligence tools
|
| The impact of the financial crisis has been
| to force companies to cut costs while also
| increasing competition for fewer customers.
| Against this backdrop, analyst Gartner has
| reported that interest in open source
| alternatives to traditional proprietary
| business intelligence (BI) tools has been
| steadily growing.

Open Source vs Commercial BI
,----[ Quote ]
| I've been collaborating with open source and
| BI experts Jos van Dongen and Mark Madsen in
| this process. Jos is the founder of Tholis
| Consulting in the Netherlands and co-author
| of the recently published book Pentaho
| Solutions. Mark is the founder of Third
| Nature and a fellow instructor at TDWI.
|
| One of the challenging aspects in evaluating
| open source is in assessing what is in the
| free community editions versus in the
| premium, supported editions. So while many
| associate open source with "free," how free
| it is really depends upon which project you
| are talking about. Pentaho seems to make
| more for free than JasperSoft and Actuate,
| for example.

Open Source Driving More Business Intelligence These Days
,----[ Quote ]
| As the Pentaho release asserts, the real cost of moving to open source BI is
| around the conversion and disruption of porting the reports. Therefore,
| you're much better off going open source BI from the jump, rather than
| migrating later.

Cloud Based and Open Source - Can Business Intelligence Get Any Cheaper Than
This?
,----[ Quote ]
| So, yes, as I've lately discovered, there are open source, cloud based
| business intelligence solutions. With no more license fees to worry about,
| you can bring down capital expenditures. And with all the cost-saving
| benefits mentioned earlier, it would be very difficult to say no to such a
| solution. Not everyone needs this, but those who do should very well start
| studying their options. This is definitely one advantage you wouldn't want
| your competition have a head start on.

Pentaho and Jaspersoft Make the Case for Open Source BI
,----[ Quote ]
| The open source software business intelligence (OSS BI) community was greeted
| recently with significant releases from two of the highest-profile players --
| Pentaho Corp. (which markets a full-fledged OSS BI platform) and Jaspersoft
| Corp. (the proprietor of a commercialized version of the seminal
| JasperReports OSS reporting project).
