The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce you to building a BAM (business activity monitoring) dashboard display using the NetBeans IDE. JasperSoft has created a NetBeans plug-in module for its iReport open source offering that allows you to create sophisticated reports for display in either rich clients or in browsers. Having a BAM capability is essential in informing application users of decision-impelling events. For example, Open ESB's Intelligent Event
Processor (IEP SE) may process streams of incoming financial transactions and discover fraudulent activity. Users would likely want a dashboard where IEP output could be monitored via business graphics.
This tutorial will get you started with the iReport NetBeans plug-in by developing a web application that reads data generated by the Java One 2008 PennyLotto IEP demo and constantly refreshes a pie chart summary.
