JasperReports (JRXML) files the SQLGenerator
 Query language only needs to be  Aggregate functions can be
registered with JasperReports pushed down to ADBMS
Server
 Domains require a JDBC or JNDI
 Topics can use any data source, data source
including custom & big data
 Domains can make many more
 The query is pre-defined / canned fields available to users
for reuse
Tip: use Domains for relational databases; best with star schemas
Tip: use Topics for non-SQL data sources (ie. Hadoop, Mongo) or complex queries
