M3 Multi tenant Production Reporting

We are transitioning from M3 single tenant to multi tenant and are looking for solutions for Production Reporting. Our production managers have a reporting requirement to see near real time production reporting (throughput and recovery metrics). We were discussing Birst as a possible solution, but are concerned orchestration time would limit data refresh frequency. Has anyone else run across similar challenges? Are there solutions within Birst?

Birst does allow you to create live connections for real time data. However, this relies on the data being reporting ready so any changes must be done in the source query as opposed to orchestration workloads which can include ETL scripting

Dan, is it also true that you can't connect live to the Data Lake?

I'm not currently a data lake user so I wouldn't know about that one

Currently, Birst Live Access connections are not available to the Data Lake. The Accelerator Analytics content is provided with a 'locked down' Shared Connection to the Data Lake.

When stating 'reporting' is the result detailed transaction data, if so then Birst isn't the platform. Analytic data are where Birst works well. There are other Infor tool sets which can be used for this type of reporting (please contact your Infor rep for details). And if you haven't reviewed the M3 Analytics content provided in Birst, it may be worthwhile to review as there may be analytic displays which can provide a foundation to custom to your business.
