Commercial Open Source BI for
OEM Development Executives
On Demand
Integrated business intelligence (BI), such as reporting or analysis capabilities have become an expected and essential component in almost any software
application, whether the functionality is delivered as traditional packaged software or via a SaaS model. Solution providers seeking to add these
capabilities to their applications have traditionally faced a hard tradeoff; forced to either build and maintain their own BI technology and drain
precious engineering resources from their core business, or to sacrifice margins to integrate expensive traditional BI software. With commercial
open source business intelligence from Pentaho, the rules of the "build versus buy" decision have dramatically changed. These market-disrupting
changes include:
- A modular, standards-based architecture designed for embedding
- No licensing fees which lowers the cost to embed and deploy
- A significant time-to-market advantage versus homegrown BI technology
- An open source model that allows you to modify and extend the code as needed

organizations to a managed BI environment that delivers a single version of truth. The event will be hosted by Wayne Eckerson, Director,
TDWI Research.
