Enhanced Reporting Capabilities
Scalable Server
 Rich, Enterprise Reporting Platform
(static and interactive)
 Multiple data sources with
multiple delivery options
 Scalable, manageable and embeddable
Web Services architecture
 Scheduling, Snapshots, Caching, more…
Advanced Authoring Tools
 Visual Studio IDE
 XML specification (RDL)
 3rd party extensibility
End-user, Ad Hoc Reporting
Strong Management Story
 SOAP Web Service APIs
 Report Manager portal
 Extensible security model
 Integration with AS, IS, management tools
Report Builder
 Extending the Reach
of Reporting Services
 Ad Hoc Reporting for
the End-User
 1-Click Install
 With Report Builder:
 Report off a
Business Model
 Modify a Report
 Build a New Report
 Report on Relational
or OLAP data
Reporting Models
 Paradigm: Build Once : Query Many
 Empowers users to create their own reports
 End-user reports can be further edited &
extended in BI Development Studio by
professional report developers
 Provide easy data navigation with drill-
through relations
 Mask relational and OLAP schema
complexity
 Present data in familiar business terms

 Reporting Services Configuration Tool
 Windows-based tool for local or remote configuration of service
 Client Utilities
 Script Host
 Encryption Key Management
 Custom Applications

Configuration Tool Features
 Virtual Directories
 Supports non-default Web sites
 Service Identities
 Database Settings
 Creation and Upgrade
 Scripts can be saved to be applied later
 Key Management
 Scale-out Initialization
 Does not sync settings across machines
 E-mail Delivery Settings
 Execution Account
Role-Based Security Model
 Tasks
 Sets of low-level operations
 Item-level (e.g., create report) or system-level
(e.g., manage jobs)
 Not customizable
Operation
Task
 Roles
 Sets of tasks
 Default roles installed by default
(browser, publisher)
 Default roles can be customized, new ones created
 Roles identified by name, localized
Group or
 Groups/Users
User
 Windows/Active Directory or custom
authentication users
Role
Role
Assignment
 Role Assignments
 Associates groups/users with Roles
 Inherited from parent in namespace
Item
Managing Report Execution
 Configure cache and snapshots via Report
Manager or SQL Management Studio
 Set execution timeouts on a system-wide or per-
report basis
 Long running reports can be stopped manually
 Report Execution Log enables analysis of server
usage
 Optionally, executions are logged to Report Server database
 Includes report, format, user, start, end,
cache hit, size
 Setup includes SSIS package and sample reports
Scheduling
 Management events can be scheduled on
the report server
 Caching, Subscriptions, History
 Schedules are stored in database and
integrated with SQL Agent
 When triggered, Agent adds entry to queue
 Scheduled events are queued in database
and polled by Windows service
Logging and Monitoring
 Performance Monitoring
 Counters for performance
 Report Execution for analysis
 Event Log Integration
 Critical events and errors
 Trace Events
 Can traces all server activities, response
times, security events
 Detail level depends on configuration setting

Scale-Out Setup
 Run setup (files only) to install first report
server instance
 Run setup (files only) to install second
report server instance
 Use configuration tool to create report
server database and configure first report
server instance
 Use configuration tool to configure second
report server instance
 Install and configure load balancing
functionality (NLB, switch)
Data Encryption
 When data source connections and credentials are
stored, they are encrypted in Report Server database
 Stored symmetric key encrypted with instance-based
private key
 In SQL Server 2005, only Windows service has encryption /
decryption logic
 Shared by all machines in scale-out deployment
 Restore key when machine name, installation or Windows
service account changes
 Manage keys with RSKEYMGMT or
Configuration Tool
 Extract a copy of the encryption key
 Apply stored encryption key
 Remove encrypted data on machine
 Always backup your symmetric key!
Summary
