Topics vs Domains

Topics                                      Domains
 Queries are taken from                     Queries are built on-demand by
      JasperReports (JRXML) files              the SQLGenerator

 Query language only needs to be            Aggregate functions can be
      registered with JasperReports            pushed down to ADBMS
      Server
                                             Domains require a JDBC or JNDI
 Topics can use any data source,              data source
      including custom & big data
                                             Domains can make many more
 The query is pre-defined / canned            fields available to users
      for reuse

Tip: use Domains for relational databases; best with star schemas
Tip: use Topics for non-SQL data sources (ie. Hadoop, Mongo) or complex queries

Editor's Notes

  1. Intro blurb:Jaspersoft ETL Enterprise is the combination of two leaders in their respective categories, delivering a true best-in-breed solution to customers. Talend recognized as the industries most successful and largest open source DI provider while Jaspersoft is proudly the world’s most widely deployed BI environment. Now, customers can go to one vendor to get a first-in-class solution for their data to dashboard needs.
  2. In order to make the BI promise a reality, a new platform and organizational approach are required.The new organizational approach must recognize that business will never be able to fully self-serve with respect to BI because business does not have the data knowledge nor the skills, nor the time to do this. The BI Builders, who are skilled in BI and have the data knowledge and most importantly, the time, must be involved. However, business will no longer be satisfied with static reports delivered months after a request. The new approach leverages the BI Builders to build the 80% of what business needs and let the business users derive the final 20% of what they need through BI self-service. This involves interactive reports and dashboards for most business users (the casual users) and ad hoc query and analysis for the minority of business users (the power users).

  4. Reduce initial cost and support requirements by deploying a single BI server for multiple internal or external organizationsMulti-tenancy featuresIntroduces the concept of "organizations" (aka "tenant"), in addition to existing users and rolesHierarchical organizations with sub-organization permissioningPublic folders for sharing items across orgsNew “superuser” can manage organizationsDelegated org admin manages resources for a specific org hierarchy
