What is in the BI Platform?
The Pentaho BI Platform is the underlying infrastructure which supports Pentaho’s reporting, analysis, dashboard, data integration, and data mining capabilities. The Pentaho BI Platform provides the architecture and infrastructure required to build complete solutions to business problems, and is designed around these low level BI services. Authentication, logging, auditing, workflow, rules engines and a solution engine provide the foundation of the platform, while service-oriented components such as Pentaho Reporting, Pentaho Analysis, and Pentaho Dashboardsprovide the higher-level, business user functionality. This Service Oriented Architecture allows the components to be called by the solution engine autonomously. Solution documents are used to define the order and relationships between these calls allowing the platform to be programmable without changing code.
