Cognos ReportNet Architecture
Cognos ReportNet is a Web product for creating and managing
ad hoc and managed reports. ReportNet is built on a
services-based architecture allowing its components to be
distributed across multiple servers in a three-zone
architecture that corresponds to the CMS Internet
Architecture:

• Presentation Zone – provides presentation services
to users who interface with a Cognos-based application from
a web browser.
• Application Zone – contains the business and
control logic for the applications and services.
• Data Zone – consists of content store and data
servers.

Cognos’ flexible, three-tier architecture ensures fail-over
protection and dynamic load balancing for high
availability. The zones are separated by firewalls and
ReportNet user interfaces sit above the zones as shown in
Below Diagram.

ReportNet components communicate with each other, and with
any additional products integrated with ReportNet, using
the Cognos business intelligence (BI) Bus API protocol. The
BI Bus API is an open, documented API based on Web Services
Definition Language (WSDL) and Simple Object Access
Protocol (SOAP).
