Java-based Reporting Integration Solution

One of the greatest advantages of Style Intelligence is its flexibility and adaptability; it does not limit you to a single deployment or presentation framework. Instead, you can seamlessly integrate Style Intelligence components into your unique application at many different levels.

Because our integrated reporting software is implemented entirely in Java, it is immediately compatible with any J2EE compliant environment. You can make use of web services, customize the built-in portal, and pass credentials directly from your application to the Style Intelligence framework for single sign-on.

This document discusses these and other ways to integrate Style Intelligence into an existing environment. It contains the following major topics.
