Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for progressive rendering of report results. These mechanisms and methods for progressive rendering of report results can enable embodiments to render report results in portions as they are received. The ability of embodiments to render report results in portions as they are received can enable report results to be progressively rendered such that delay is avoided Which would otherwise occur when rendering only in response to receipt of an entirety of the report results.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for locally defining related reports using a global definition. These mechanisms and methods for locally defining related reports using a global definition can provide a single global definition that is applicable to various reports. The ability to provide such single global definition can enable multiple local definitions that are report specific to be configured, at least in part, using the single global definition.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for conditionally executing related reports in parallel based on an estimated execution time. These mechanisms and methods for conditionally executing related reports in parallel based on an estimated execution time can provide parallel execution of related reports when predetermined time-based criteria are met. The ability to conditionally provide parallel execution of related reports can reduce overhead caused by such parallel execution when the time-based criteria is met.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for distributed execution of related reports. These mechanisms and methods for distributed execution of related reports can enable embodiments to provide parallel execution of related reports. The ability of embodiments to provide parallel execution of related reports can result in higher performance in the execution of the related reports.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for converting a format of report results. These mechanisms and methods for converting a format of report results can provide report results in a format that is usable for multiple purposes. The ability to provide reports results in an application independent format enables versatility of the reports results.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided methods and systems for facilitating efficient error handling in a network environment. A method of embodiments includes receiving a validation request having configuration parameters of error dialogs relating to errors, and validating the configuration parameters and the errors. The validating includes mapping each error with a corresponding dialog. The method further includes transmitting a validating report having results of validation of the configuration parameters and the errors. The validation report is used to assign an order to each error and its corresponding dialog.
