Information about people, policies, ideas, money… That kind of information is what drives a business’ success - or its downfall if not harvested, organized, and managed properly. Particularly when you are talking about enterprise business and security intelligence. Business Intelligence = Security Intelligence The Business Intelligence Reporting Suite (BIRS) from Software House offers the latest in reporting and data warehousing for C•CURE 800/8000, and web-based reporting for C•CURE 9000. The suite includes several popular pre-written reports, such as 24 Hour Journal Messages, 24 Hour Trouble Messages, Graphical Usage and Count of Door Group and the open system procedures allow the reports to be written and saved for repeat use. BIRS provides an extremely interactive user experience via any standard web browser, allowing you to scrutinize the information without needing to print or review hard copies. In addition to web-based reporting, BIRS allows the enterprise to share and blend data from other sources such as ERP and Time and Attendance systems to yield critical business information and reporting. While browser-based reporting is part of BIRS, it is not the only method of providing information to users and other systems. Through the power of Microsoft SQL and reporting services, many other information delivery options exist such as email, CSV export, PDF export, XML data transfer, or database pool offerings. Using Enterprise-Class Technology for Superior Results BIRS was developed using Microsoft SQL 2008 R2 database and advanced services delivering enterprise-class integration and business intelligence methods for the production and delivery of information across an organization. BIRS connects to C•CURE via standard ODBC client methods to perform time interval harvesting of both the C•CURE configuration data as well as the C•CURE transactional journal data. This allows for lightweight sampling of the C•CURE server without loading C•CURE to process the actual reports. This distributive computing model also allows multiple users to run reports off of the SQL dataset without taxing the C•CURE server for multi-user report processing. Additionally, the data warehouse can be used by custom applications or with SharePoint integration. Reports can be ordered and produced through Software House, or can be written by any user with SQL knowledge and experience.
