Usage
The Reporting Datamart can be used as:
a data source to generate reports, through queries on a person data according to a specific profile.
a repository to build custom static web sites with external CMS tools
a repository to build a custom application, or an outbound interface to another tool
a repository for mobile applications.
Advantages
Advantages of using the Reporting Datamart are that:
data amount is reduced to comply with the creation parameters (user and profile rights) (see Content section)
data access is simplified
it contains up-to-date information (see Synchronizing the Reporting Datamart with the HOPEX Repository content section)
it may run on a separate server
it does not affect HOPEX repository performance while using it
However, see Launching a diagram synchronization and Launching a calculated MetaAttribute synchronization sections for HOPEX repository performance issues.
