Power View and Reporting Services 2012 Book

Several projects kept me very busy over the past year. I will talk more about a few of these in subsequent postings now that some are publicly disclosed in the meantime.

After the successful Report Design Recipes book focusing on best practices and report design patterns, it was time to work on a comprehensive book covering the entire Reporting Services 2012 product. For example, the book includes about 100 pages of brand new contents I dedicated solely to Power View and tabular models with PowerPivot (chapters 12 and 13). An extraordinary amount of thanks goes to my co-authors; Paul Turley, Thiago Silva, Ken Withee, and Grant Paisley!

My esteemed colleague Ariel Netz (Partner Group Program Manager for SQL Server Reporting Services) graciously wrote the foreword of our book. I think the following paragraph quoted from Ariel’s foreword summarizes in a great way what to expect from this book:

“What I really like about Professional SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services is that it’s a perfect reflection of the Microsoft BI journey through the eyes of the Reporting Services product line, from the early days of managed and operational to the latest addition of self-service reporting. This book was written by experts who built the product and have implemented it at customers’ sites. Together they have more than 40 years of business intelligence experience.
I call this book the encyclopedia of SQL Server Reporting Services.

This book covers a wide range of topics in depth:

  • Demonstrates self-service reporting with Report Builder, using wizards, and simple design tools
  • Helps you design highly visual and attractive business reports with dynamic formatting, drill-down, and drill-through actions
  • Provides the tools to build BI dashboards, scorecards, and performance indicators
  • Demonstrates building BI Semantic Models, interactively exploring data in Power View, and creating compelling presentations
  • Features helpful examples, hands-on code, and resourceful solutions for common problems
  • Demonstrates how to integrate Reporting Services with SharePoint, configure and use Power View, and manage a native mode report server
