Thanks ... we're familiar with Mondrian. Unfortunately, the only stable GUI
for it under $30k is jPivot, which is basically dead since 2008. And, IMHO,
it's a very ugly product.

The newer jPivot (which Pentaho and Jasper have both "forked"), is somewhat
an improvement.

But now, we need a PG database to store the raw data in, and a Mondrian OLAP
server to store the drill-downs in.

... Was hoping this wasn't going to be 30 tools to accomplish our needs.
