Is there an ODI 11g Desupport Date? (disliking ODI 12c)

JohnETFeb 20 2018 — edited Feb 23 2018

We've been very disappointed with the way the user interface has changed in ODI 12c.  Not sure why it was changed so drastically from 11g except to possibly placate the OWB people.

I wonder what went wrong with the developers of ODI12c?  Our testing of the upgrade to 12c has not been very satisfactory and the slowness of 12c Studio compared to 11g is disappointing.

Your query might win the award for the "shortest question with the longest answer", but I'll try for a short answer. For the first part, you need to fetch data from the database. For this you could use anything from raw JDBC to an Object Relational Mapping (ORM) tool, like Hibernate. For the second part, I would recommend a reporting tool, like Jasper Reports, BIRT or ReportMill. Currently, only ReportMill has generated reports in JavaFX. But they all generate PDF - and that would be my suggestion: generate PDF and use the platform PDF viewer to display and print reports. You could spend years trying to duplicate all the nice display and print functionality found in Acrobat Reader and Mac OS X Preview.

As it happens, ReportMill (disclosure: me) is working on a tool to do exactly what your question asks for:

There is also a very cool database tool that has JavaFX support called XDEV. We'll both be at JavaOne.
