Actuate Corporation is a publicly traded reporting, analytics and customer communications software company based in San Mateo, California, part of the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley. The company is known for its creation of the open source Eclipse BIRT business data reporting project launched by the Eclipse Foundation in 2004. Actuate software helps businesses and OEMs worldwide serve their customers within the finance, government, manufacturing, telecommunications, and healthcare industries, among others.
In addition to its headquarters in California, Actuate has offices across the U.S. and in Toronto, London, Paris, Frankfurt, Barcelona, Fribourg, Singapore, Tokyo and Sydney.
Actuate's primary commercial offerings include the BIRT Designers, and the BIRT iHub development and deployment platform for developers; BIRT Analytics for business analysts' own predictive analytics exercises; and the Actuate Customer Communications Suite for processing, transformation and delivery of high-volume content to an organization's own customers.
Open source BIRT consists of a designer and a runtime engine for generating report content that can be embedded into an application.
Actuate’s commercial offerings include BIRT iHub, containing various viewing capabilities, and BIRT Designer Pro. Developers use BIRT Designer Pro to build data visualizations, such as reports, dashboards and analytic content. This content can then be deployed and distributed to end users using BIRT iHub, the deployment server. BIRT iHub supports easy integration and access to multiple data sources. Server offerings are based on BIRT iServer, a report server with scheduling, distribution, security and alerts capabilities.
BIRT iHub F-Type is a freemium software product released by Actuate on July 10, 2014. The product provides access to the features and functionality offered in Actuate’s BIRT iHub enterprise-grade deployment platform, with metered output capacity. As a free server, BIRT iHub F-Type is designed to manage and distribute content created by developers who use the open source BIRT Designer, a top level Eclipse Foundation project, or Actuate’s commercial BIRT Designer Pro.
