For my thesis I'm going to build a Proof of Concept of a reporting engine but I don't know where to start. I have read about business intelligence tools a bit and that is the direction that I need to search but those all refer to existing tools. What I have in mind is a reporting tools like google analytics based on dimensions and metric to extract aggregated data from the database.<p>Any recommendations on literature about how reporting tools work? Or some talks about it on YouTube?
