Jaspersoft is expanding its business intelligence software for Apple’s iPhone and iPad. The Jaspersoft 4.2 release also provides an open source software development kit to help build mobile BI apps.
“The open source mobile SDK is for embedded apps,” Jim Bell, chief marketing officer at JasperSoft, told InternetNews.com. “We know that we won’t be able to provide a one-size-fits-all solution, particularly for mobile devices.”
Bell said the SDK is for Apple iOS devices, including the iPad and iPhone. With the SDK, developers can customize the mobile look and feel of a business intelligence application. Bell said iOS is Jaspersoft’s first platform for the mobile SDK and the company is currently looking at developing one for the Android platform in 2012.
