About Eclipse BIRT
Eclipse BIRT builds reports and data visualizations and renders them inside Java applications. It pairs a report engine with an Eclipse-based designer, so teams can lay out reports against their data and embed the runtime in their own server-side code without a proprietary reporting product.
Reports run on the BIRT runtime, which deploys into a Java web application on Tomcat 10. Version 4.24.0 runs on JDK 21, and release, latest, and nightly update sites are published for installation and testing.
BIRT is maintained by the Eclipse Foundation and distributed through Eclipse download sites. Source builds use JDK 21 and Maven 3.9.11 through Tycho. Self-hosted use centers on deploying the reporting runtime in your own Java environment.
