BIRT Exchange Forum: BIRT Exchange Forum -> BIRT Rocks!

The demo environment features Actuate BIRT iServer that helps deploy, manage and distribute BIRT documents. In this demo environment you can try out a number of product features like running, browsing, viewing and scheduling reports. In addition you can also try out dashboards, interactive and ad-hoc capabilities of Interactive Viewer and BIRT Sudio. As I had mentioned in my last blog, in the last few weeks we have made several enhancements to this environment. Here is a summary of some of these changes:

• Redesigned landing page - The new landing page has a collection of examples that highlights specific product features along with links to download resources. The landing page can be accessed here: Landing Page
  
• Version upgrade - BIRT iServer has been upgraded to Actuate version 11. With this the end user interface (Information Console) also gets a facelift that can be accessed here: Demo Environment
  
• Actuate 11 Demo Pack Examples - A new folder ("Actuate 11 Demo Pack") has been added to /Public folder that you can browse and run examples from within Information Console.
  
• Personal workspace on BIRT iServer - You'll have you own personal workspace on BIRT iServer. To claim this workspace and start using demo environment please log in to your BIRT Exchange account. If you don’t have an account, start by registering on BIRT Exchange, its completely free!

If you haven't already noticed the live demo server has been upgraded to the latest version of Actuate (version 11). This release makes an important milestone for Actuate since it comes with so many new features, I have talked about some of these in my previous blogs. In the coming days we will be making changes to the live demo environment landing page area to make these features easily discoverable with direct links to specific examples and features. Stay tuned for these changes and do let us know your feedback. The demo server and landing pages can be accessed through the following links:
