T14: If you are interested in Business Intelligence, you have todeliver attractive, user-friendly, and effective BI interfaces
quickly. This session will overview several ways to create them,
focussing on Microsoft SharePoint 2010 as their platform. You will
see PerformancePoint Services used to create a KPI, place it in a
scorecard and build a dashboard in no time at all while requiring
only basic knowledge of the underlying BI system. We will also show
you the self-service functionality of SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting
Services, which simplifies the process of do-it-yourself generation
of ad-hoc BI reports. Geospatial reporting with Bing, self-service
analytics with PowerPivot and Excel, and collaborative dashboarding
with SharePoint will complete this tour-de-force of the wide
variety of tools available on the Microsoft BI platform.
