How should I architect JasperReports with a PHP front+backend system
- by Itay Moav
Our system is written completely in PHP.
For various business reasons (which are a given) I need to build the reports of the system using JasperReports.
What architecture should I use? Should I put the Jasper as a stand alone server (if possible) and let the php query against it, should I have it generate the reports with a cron, and then let the PHP scoop up the files and send them to the web client/browser...
