Business Intelligence – Does SharePoint Matter Anymore?
9:00 AM
Room: 6 – Meeting Room Level
SharePoint has long been Microsoft’s platform for the delivery of Business and for dashboards on premises. Power BI on the other hand has emerged as the pre-eminent BI platform in the cloud. The release of SQL Server 2016 contains a vastly updated Reporting Services, which is Microsoft’s stated platform for the delivery of reports on-premises, and SSRS Integrated mode is going away. Excel Services has moved away from SharePoint and into Office Online Server. So what role does SharePoint now play for BI? As always, it is an excellent integrating and dashboarding platform.
This session explores all of the ways that SharePoint, Power BI, Reporting Services and Office Online Server work together, both on-premises and in the cloud. Learn how to bring your Power BI reports to your SharePoint users quickly and efficiently, and learn how to report on your SharePoint data using Power BI. We will tie it all together.
