Web based Report Designer Spring/Hibernate

I am looking for a web based report designer supporting spring/hibernate. I have seen BIRTStudio but it is not free.

I came across this list http://java-source.net/open-source/charting-and-reporting which could be helpful. It might be appropriate to cookup my own small reporting engine. My core requirements:

  • End user should be able to specify parameters for a report
  • Report should be available in Excel form
  • Report should use the same permissions scheme as the application (ie spring security)
  • Report can be of two types (visual and textual) and among those types report can be of Chart or Map
Solution

  • I have found Pentaho to be a solution

    The target audience is not software developers, but it still seems a good start.
