hozawa Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Following page contains information on AWS Datasource. Seems like the main difference is ability to select from AWS Region.http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-administrator-guide/v60/aws-data-sources Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution marianol Posted March 24, 2016 Solution Share Posted March 24, 2016 Essentially they both use JDBC, the main difference is that the AWS Datasource does autodiscovery of your RDS and Redshift instances, sets the proper Security groups, drivers and creates the connection string (JDBC URI) for you without the need to dig into the EC2Console and get all the data.
