| Day 2008 Partner Spotlight</h1> |
| <span style="font-style: italic;">The <a |
| href="https://netbeans.org/community/partners/">NetBeans Partner |
| Program</a> |
| recognizes companies that add value to the |
| NetBeans Project by building plugins, endorsing NetBeans |
| as a development environment and/or application platform, and more. At <a |
| href="https://netbeans.org/community/articles/javaone/2008/nb-day.html">NetBeans |
| Day 2008</a>, some of our partner companies will be on-hand to showcase |
| their technologies and to demonstrate the ways to extend and get the |
| most out of the NetBeans IDE! Here's a preview of what to expect.</span><br> |

| <h4>What is Elixir Technology and how did the company become involved |
| with |
| NetBeans? </h4> |
| <a href="http://www.elixirtech.com/">Elixir Technology</a> provides an |
| integrated Business Intelligence platform |
| for Dashboard, Report, Data ETL and Scheduling, based on REST-based Web |
| Services SOA. This award-winning product, Elixir Repertoire, is |
| developed entirely in Java and Swing, which makes it a natural fit for |
| NetBeans integration. Its REST interface should also appeal to |
| the NetBeans users who develop the next-generation Rich Internet |
| Applications (RIA). <br> |
| <br> |

| <h4>Tell us about the Elixir Repertoire Plugin for NetBeans.</h4> |
| The <a href="http://www.elixirtech.com/NetBeans/">Repertoire Plugin</a> |
| is a full featured BI Designer to do the |
| following: <br> |
| <br> |
| <ul style="margin-left: 50px;"> |
| <li>Create interactive dashboards </li> |
| <li>Design professional reports </li> |
| <li>Define complex data transformations </li> |
| <li>Schedule automated tasks</li> |
| </ul> |
| While all these can be done in coding, this tool allows these designs |
| to be re-used and maintained with ease, freeing the developer to focus |
| on more demanding coding tasks. These functions can then be readily |
| incorporated into any application built with such as Java, JavaFX, |
| Ruby, Groovy, AJAX, etc - without having to install any connector or |
| clients. </td> |

| With REST API as its underlying native interface, these BI |
| "resources" are accessed as lightweight web services using a simple set |
| of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE operations over HTTP or HTTPS. Beyond just |
| accessing the templates, many other server functionalities are also |
| made available including its underlying security objects for Single |
| Sign-On, logs for centralized monitoring, and repository for automation |
| control.<br> |
| <br> |
| For those who prefer embedded mode, there is a Java API for connecting |
| to the Repertoire Server and another for embedding the Repertoire |
| Runtime. There are code samples provided for easy reference. <br> |
| <br> |
| The Repertoire Plugin is specially made available for FREE for NetBeans |
| users for development use! The Repertoire Server, Runtime, and Remote |
| are additional components available for licensing separately for |
| production use. <br> |

| <h4>Elixir has a variety of activities planned for NetBeans Day. Can |
| you |
| tell us about what to expect?</h4> |
| We will be launching Repertoire Plugin at CommunityOne, with every |
| participant receiving our software CD in their welcome pack. We'll also |
| be hosting a Demo Station so everyone can stop by to see the Plugin in |
| action. There is also a mind teaser challenge to win a limited edition |
| of the Elixir Puzzle Cube. <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>Do you have other events planned for JavaOne? </h4> |
| Elixir will also host a booth at SOA Village area. <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>What's the roadmap for your partnership with NetBeans? </h4> |
| Basically all our current features are already made available through |
| this Plugin. As we are new at this, we would want to gather feedback |
| from the NetBeans community to plan for future enhancements for the |
| Plugin.<br> |
| <br> |
| On partnership level, we are working out to be a Global Partner for Sun |
| Tech Days to spread the word around to those who can't make it to |
| CommunityOne, especially many of those outside US.<br> |
