Cocoon is an XML reporting tool.

As it is servlet based you can run it using Websphere or any
application server.

The beauty of Cocoon is the separation between data: stored in XML
files and the presentation logic: implemented in xsl.

You can generate the output you want with XSL: html, pdf, wap, whatever.

Once installed, Cocoon handles any http request to an XML file.

As a result, with the same data you can apply any presentation logic.
