Embedding Content
WebFOCUS embedded Business Intelligence (BI) provides the capability of incorporating WebFOCUS content, analytics, and functionality (features) into an external application.
In understanding techniques and considerations for embedding business intelligence, there are several approaches and techniques that can be used to embed business intelligence (BI) into an external application, including:
- Embedding WebFOCUS BI Portal pages or other WebFOCUS content into an HTML iframe.
- Using WebFOCUS web services to embed content into the application.
- Launching WebFOCUS tools such as InfoAssist from the application.
- Using WebFOCUS Open Portal Services to embed content (specifically, WebFOCUS portlets) in a JSR 286-compliant portal environment (for example, Microsoft SharePoint).
The embedded BI demonstration ("demo") application that is packaged with WebFOCUS enables you to explore the iframe and web services embedding options.
