We are embarking on a big project which has a quite few number of mandated
reports to be produced in batch. We are using Business Objects ( crystal
enterprise ) for all our online/adhoc reporting needs. It is a J2EE
application.

We are in the process of deciding which reporting tool we should use for
Batch. I tried to look it up on the web; all the posts regarding comparisons
are really old and I do not whether it is relevant any more or not.

My main issue is performance; how BO fares with Oracle Reports. I heard BO
does the joins on the client side; my knowledge in BO is very limited. On
the other there is a pressure to keep the whole reporting environment
uniform ( BO every where ). My main concern as a DBA is performance; I do
not want to end up with a product which inherently has performance
limitations.

Any comments, pointers or white papers are of great help.

Thanks in advance
