I've got several customers whose software vendor is in bed with SAP for this
software. It requires a Windows server & client between the user and the
System i database. Once the customer sees how much work it is to get things
up and running, they put BO on the back shelf and continue to use SEQUEL.

Subject: SAP Business Objects BI software
Does anyone know if SAP Business Objects BI software runs on an iSeries? I
know SAP ERP does. I was thinking Business Objects was a Windows only
product. If the application itself does not run on an iSeries do you know if
the database it uses can be DB2 on an iSeries? I know it can access any ODBC
compliant database to get data for the reports but my question concerns
where and how it stores the report definitions. We will be buying a package
soon that comes with Business Objects as its reporting tool and I was
wondering if we could not install two or three more Windows servers just to
run Business Objects and its database and maybe just run that on our
existing iSeries. I am planning on asking the vendor the same questions but
they are not an iSeries focused vendor and may not have any idea.
