Actuate BIRT is a commercial offering based on open source BIRT and benefits from the rich capabilities of the Eclipse platform and a very active community of users. Actuate BIRT provides the convenience of a one-button install, and support for production deployments via the purchase of Actuate-backed indemnification, maintenance, professional services and support.
Actuate BIRT provides two products based on open source BIRT components:
- Actuate BIRT Report Designer Professional, a report designer with the ability to capitalize on the full power of the Eclipse IDE such as integrating Java code for scripting in reports
- Actuate BIRT Report Designer, an RCP based simplified report designer which focuses on just report design
Each of these products includes the BIRT runtime report engine, sample report viewer application, charting engine, and JDBC drivers that connect to commercial databases such as Oracle and DB2 amongst others.
