A method including actions of pairing with a mobile device and receiving a user name, a password encrypted with a connector password key, and a public key of the mobile device. Additional actions include providing the password encrypted with the connector password key, receiving the password in a decrypted form, obtaining a pairing key, encrypting the pairing key using the public key, encrypting the password with a local password key, providing the pairing key encrypted using the public key and the password encrypted with the local password key, disconnecting from the mobile device, after disconnecting form the mobile device, reconnecting with mobile device, providing a workstation identification, receiving the user name and the password encrypted with the local password key, decrypting the password encrypted with the local password key, and logging in the user using the user name and the password decrypted with the local password key.

A layered architecture for communication of reporting system reports to users connecting via a web server. Users communicate via HTTP with web servers without download of plugins or executable files to the user system. The web servers are clustered to balance requests and transmit the requests. The web servers pass report requests via XML to the business intelligence servers to perform the work with the databases. The business intelligence servers convert reports into XML and provide the XML-based version to the web server. The web server then transmits an HTML or DHTML report back to the client over the web.

Method and system for providing business intelligence web content with reduced client-side processing

A method and system is provided for exchanging information over a computer network. A network server computer system receives a query request from at least one client computer system over a computer network. The query request is formatted into an extensible markup language query document according to an extensible markup language document application program interface. The extensible markup language query document is transmitted to at least one business intelligence server computer system. The at least one business intelligence server computer system retrieves the information requested in the extensible markup language query document from at least one data storage device.

Method and system for business intelligence over network using XML

A web interface system and a method for use with a business information system are provided. The web interface system provides an interface to a user and comprises a first set of HTML interface tools located on a business intelligence server, the first set of HTML interface tools including spreadsheet tools, graphing tools, auto-prompt tools, and report generation and management tools. The web interface system additionally includes a second set of HTML interface tools located on a web server, the second set of HTML interface tools including navigation tools and internationalization tools. The web interface system also includes a communication link between the business intelligence server, the web server, and the user, such that the user is able to utilize the first set of HTML interface tools and the second set of HTML interface tools.

HTML/DHTML web interface system and method

Method and system for providing business intelligence information over a computer network via extensible markup language

A layered architecture for communication of reporting system reports to users connecting via a web server. Users communicate via HTTP with web servers without download of plugins or executable files to the user system. The web servers are clustered to balance requests and transmit the requests. The web servers pass report requests via XML to the business intelligence servers to perform the work with the databases. The business intelligence servers convert reports into XML and provide the XML-based version to the web server. The web server then transmits an HTML or DHTMNL report back to the client over the web.

An OLAP system with decision support technology for enabling a user to asynchronously generate report requests through a web browser or other user interface module connected over a network to the OLAP system. Once the request is received by the server, the web browser is freed to enable the user to conduct other activities including the requesting of other reports while the first requested report is processing. The server maintains a list of reports requested. With each request for a report received, the system determines whether a similar report has been requested and either generates the report if the report has not been previously requested or adds a request by that user to a report list of a report that has been previously requested without processing the report again. If the requested report was already completed, the results are immediately returned to the user. The report list may be used to display the status of reports requested and provide a system user with various options relating to the reports being generated (e.g., cancel, refresh).
