Opensource reporting services? [closed]

Answer 1

The open source Pentaho suite includes a report server. I believe it's Java-based, so will connect to any datasource for which JDBC drivers are available (including SQL Server).

SQL Express with Advanced Services includes a free version of SQL Server Reporting Services.

Answer 2

Check the JasperForge projects (JasperReports, iReports, etc) at http://jasperforge.org/ I think is one of the most used plataform for reporting in Java projects.
