Startups step into the BI game BI just may be the next big thing in open source. On Monday, Greenplum and JasperSoft, two startups focusing on BI, will introduce themselves to the open source community.Bringing reporting to the fore, JasperSoft plans to announce JasperReports and JasperDecisions. The one-two punch combines the commercial, server-based JasperDecisions with the open source reporting tool JasperReports. JasperSoft CEO Paul Doscher said the company will provide support services and reporting on a par with Business Objects’ and Cognos’, but at a fraction of the price.Both JasperSoft products are available now. Greenplum also will enter the open source fray on Monday, when it unwraps the open source project Bizgres, an open source database server tuned for data warehousing DeepGreen and the commercial DeepGreen MPP (Massively Parallel Processing), slated to be available this summer. While JasperSoft competes with the reporting bigwigs, Greenplum is complementary. The company will compete against Netezza and other data warehouse appliances by offering similar software not bound to proprietary hardware.
