First, Epiphany Inc, which announced last week that it was being taken over by SSA Global Technologies Inc, has certified its analytic-CRM suite for JBoss Inc’s open source Application Server. JBoss joins Epiphany’s support for commercial application servers like BEA WebLogic and IBM WebSphere.
In a separate announcement, Actuate Corp’s commercial version of the open source BIRT (Business Intelligence Reporting Tools) reporting code has been network-certified by MySQL AB, a Swedish open source database provider.
This means that Actuate BIRT will become a recommended reporting and analysis component of MySQL’s Data Warehouse Scale-Out Solution Set. MySQL is part of the so-called LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP/Perl/Python) open source stack of technologies.
