The purpose of this forum is to provide a free and open discussion area for people to ask questions, provide answers, and share experiences with the products offered by Business Objects SA. This is not the official Business Objects technical support site. Instead, this is a community of people with a common interest: getting the most out of their investment in Business Objects products.
BusinessObjects是一家Business Intelligece解决方案供应商,公司的中文名叫“博奥杰”,主要提供report/ETL/企业绩效管理等BI产品,最新的产品是BusinessObjects XI,新的BusinessObjects Enterprise平台,整合了web intelligence/desktop intelligence/olap intelligence/crystal reports等优秀的report工具,并且其语义层universe的概念应该是符合BI的本质的,由数据分析人员设计数据语义层,由业务人员自己生成需要的report,多么美好的构思,可惜现阶段还是社会主义初级阶段。
目前的BI市场,工具一大堆,并且各个版本之间变化很大,文档也参差不齐,让人有点无所适从。或许这是厂商的一个策略,可以乘机卖培训?呵呵,开个玩笑,不过这类培训确实挺贵的。回到正题,说一下BOB,这是一个专门讨论BusinessOjbects的技术论坛,很多BO的难题,从各种report设计到SDK开发到universe到系统管理,都能在这里找到答案。人气也不错:

国内似乎还没找到类似的论坛,或许以后BO在中国的市场起来后会有吧。
