Data Services

The Crystal Reports report designer

provides a variety of flexible data-

connectivity options. For example, you

can extend report creation tasks to

report designers who may have limited

knowledge of the underlying data

source, taking advantage of the seman-

tic metalayer that masks the complexi-

ties associated with data access.

Data Drivers and Connectivity

Crystal Reports includes more than 35

data drivers for direct connectivity to

relational, XML, online analytical pro-

cessing (OLAP), and in-memory data

(see Figure 10). Report authors can

choose from native, open database

connectivity (ODBC), object linking and

embedding database (OLE DB), and

Java database connectivity (JDBC) to

databases, files, logs, enterprise appli-

cations, or program elements. Report

authors can also choose to write their

own SQL commands. Data from multi-

ple sources can be joined and synchro-

nized for use in one report.

Metadata

An abstraction layer over complicated

data sources simplifies data connectivi-

ty. This accelerates report design by

making it easier to access data. In addi-

tion to this abstraction layer, a powerful

data-security feature called view-time

security is also provided. This feature

means that end users see only the data

they have the rights to see, even when

the report is scheduled.
