Cognos

IBM Cloud Delivery Services SRE does not install, run or manage Cognos components in the Maximo on Cloud environment. If a Maximo on Cloud customer is running Maximo v7.6.1 and wants to use Cognos, the following is required:

  • Customer must purchase (1) on-prem Maximo license in order to obtain and download the Cognos 11.0 entitlement and electronic media

  • This entitlement includes an integration from Maximo 7.6.1 to Cognos 11.0

  • Customer is responsible for installation and configuration of Cognos components on-premise. It can also be installed with a cloud provider (of their choice)

  • IBM's current Cognos on Cloud (SaaS offering) is supported, but there is no out of the box Cognos integration available. This is a continuous delivery product that uses a later Cognos version (11.1)

  • Earlier Note: earlier versions of Maximo (7.6.0.4 , > 7.6.0.9) are also supportedwork with Cognos, but there is no out of the box Cognos integration to these versions and they require an out of support version of Cognos (v10.2). It is highly recommended to upgrade to Maximo v7.6.1 before implementing Cognos.

For further information on Maximo 7.6.1 to Cognos 11.0 integration, see the following link:

3rd Party reporting tools will not be hosted within the Maximo Managed Services environments, including Cognos. Customers can run these tools either within their infrastructure or can utilize cloud services or a reporting tool cloud offering if one is offered.  It is important that these tools are discussed with CDS IBM SRE to ensure the best way to integrate to the tools is known before starting the project and identify potential issues before significant effort and time is spent by the customer.
