Hi Experts,
I wanted to integrate my web application (which is Cloud enabled) with Jasper Reports to provide reporting capabilites.
After doing some research on Community, I understood that we can get reporting capabitlites by using only JasperReports Library alone (which is a simple jar
that needs to be placed in the application CLASSPATH along with its dependencies) or JasperReports Server (which is built on top of Library).
I also understood that JasperReports Server will provide additional features such as Central Reports repository, Reports Scheduling, Ad-Hoc reporting,
Dash Boards etc. Now I need to take a decision on which component (only Library or Server) I need to choose for integration. Need following calrifications
to tkae the decision. Please clarify them:
1. The comprehensive list of additonal features provided Server in additon to features provided by Library.
2. What are the best practices in choosing one of these components (Library and Server) w.r.t Features, Maintainability, Scalability, Upgrade etc.
Thanks,
Sampath G
