Full Reporting Life Cycle Support:
SQL Server Reporting Services supports the full reporting life cycle, including:
Report authoring. Report developers can create reports
to be published to the Report Server using Microsoft or other design tools that
use Report Definition Language (RDL), an XML-based industry standard used to define
reports.
Report management. Report definitions, folders, and resources
are published and managed as a Web service. Managed reports can be executed either
on demand or on a specified schedule, and are cached for consistency and performance.
In SQL Server Reporting Services, administrators can use the Management Studio to
organize reports and data sources, schedule report execution and delivery, and track
reporting history.
Report delivery. SQL Server Reporting Services supports
both on-demand (pull) and event-based (push) delivery of reports. Users can view
reports in a Web-based format or in e-mail.
Report security. SQL Server Reporting Services implements
a flexible, role-based security model to protect reports and reporting resources.
The product includes extensible interfaces for integrating other security models
as well.
Key Reporting Scenarios:
SQL Server Reporting Services combines a single, complete reporting platform with
a scalable and extensible architecture to meet a wide variety of reporting needs,
including:
Enterprise reporting. Enterprises can use Reporting Services
for their operational reporting or business intelligence applications. Using Reporting
Services, corporate IT staff can design a variety of reports and deploy them to
individual throughout the enterprise.
Ad-hoc reporting. SQL Server Reporting Services includes
Report Builder, a new ad-hoc reporting tool that enables business users to create
their own reports and explore corporate data. Report Builder incorporates a user-friendly
business query model that enables users to build reports without deep technical
understanding of the underlying data sources.
Web-based reporting for partners and customers. Organizations
can deploy interactive Web-based reports to deliver information to customers or
partners over extranets of the Internet. Reporting Services isolates report consumers
from the complexity of the underlying data sources, while providing personalization
and interactivity.
