If you are developing your own custom desktops or administrative tools with the BusinessObjects Enterprise Software Development Kit (SDK), be sure to review the libraries and APIs. You can now, for instance, incorporate complete security and scheduling options into your own web applications. You can also modify server settings from within your own code in order to further integrate BusinessObjects Enterprise with your existing intranet tools and overall reporting environment.
To improve the scalability of your system, consider distributing administrative efforts by developing web applications for delegated content administration. You can grant select users the ability to manage particular BusinessObjects Enterprise folders, content, users, and groups on behalf of their team, department, or regional office.
In addition, be sure to check the developer documentation available on your BusinessObjects Enterprise product CD for performance tips and other scalability considerations. The query optimization section in particular provides some preliminary steps to ensuring that custom applications make efficient use of the query language.
