WebClient and Business Intelligence
Many WebClient developers are planning to incorporate business intelligence (BI) into their web applications. Adding business charts, graphs, and dashboards to Plex application is actually very straight forward. There are two techniques that can be used.
- The web component framework, Dojo, contains extensive charting capability as part of Dojox. These chart components are free, and all types of business charts are supported, but some programming is required. Stay tuned for a blog post on using this technique.
- WebClient also integrates well with more extensive BI frameworks such as IBM's popular DB2 Web Query and other products that have a web interface (most of the popular open source or commercial packages). The BI package can then be controlled from WebClient applications (some details here).
