Abstract
Methods and apparatus for generating a report from hierarchically formatted data are disclosed. First, a data source including one or more files having a hierarchical file format is identified, where each of the files includes one or more data elements. A relational database model is obtained, where the relational database model includes one or more virtual tables, each of the virtual tables including one or more virtual columns. The relational database model is then mapped to the hierarchical file format. A query may be obtained using the virtual relational database. Data is then obtained from the virtual relational database corresponding to the query, thereby enabling a report including the data to be generated.
