There are several programming philosophies revolving around the use of business objects, several frameworks (and dot net) have their own business objects, so if these guys really tried to reuse the name of a generic term as their product name... they shouldn't be surprised if nobody here heard of them. I mean, this is the first response to your message in 13 hours - someone should have used that product if it was well known.

Hi Dragan,

Business Objects has been around for quite a while. I used it back in 1996/7. I think it was originally an Oracle tool (I could be very wrong about that) and the owners of Crystal Reports bought it shortly after that. SAP I think are the current owners. Check out http://BusinessObjects.com.
