Hi folks,
Maybe a little bit off topic, but I want to convince my managers of the value of opensource products and decided that I will reverse engineer the datawarehouse at my company. We are a small player and our datawarehouse solution is based on an ETL tool from Informatica, Oracle and Business Objects.
I have already written the most ETL defenitions in Ruby. So I will manage to get the data in the postgresql database, in a star schema.
However, to convince management I need a slick, opensource reporting tool to show the reports that already have been defined in Business Objects. Or I should try to use Business Objects through ODBC.
Can anyone tell me about his/her findings in a similar approach? What decent but opensource Query tools exist today which can support this architecture (web based OR a client-server), where the clients MUST be windows 2000 because that's what they use at the office.
Thanks in advance and hope I will get some good feedback (as I always do from this excellent list)
Brgds Dino
