What Are The Functional & Architectural Differences Between Business Objects And Web Intelligence Reports?

Functional differences
• Business objects, for building or accessing reports, needs to be installed on every
pc. On the other hand, Web intelligence reports needs a browser and a URL of the
server from where Business objects will be accessed.
• BOMain.key needs to be copied on every pc using BO client. This is not required for Web Intelligence Reports.
• Business objects expect you to use the same pc where they are installed. Web
Intelligence reports can be accessed from anywhere, provided internet is available.
Architectural differences For BO client, for sending info to BO Server BOMain.key, uses the key of the local drive. Once the information is sent, it is validated and checked into the repository upon which the user can access the BO services. On the other hand, Web Intelligence the web servers BOMain.key is used to check privilege of the user and then sending information to the BO Server BOMain.key.
