Summary
In this chapter you learned that SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services integration with SharePoint 2010 is required to enable Power View. The SQL Server 2012 edition required is Business Intelligence Edition or Enterprise Edition for production environments along with the SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Edition.
In addition, a browser that supports Silverlight 5 is required to create and view Power View reports.
In order to create Power View reports you first need to create a document library that supports Semantic Model connection file content types. The connection files supported to create Power View reports are the Report Data Source connection file and the BI Semantic Model connection file.
Power View allows you to create horizontal and vertical bar charts, horizontal and vertical multiples, and scatter and bubble charts. Slicers and cards are used to dynamically filter and slice the data.
A nice feature of Power View is the ability to export reports as PowerPoint slides, maintaining the same filtering, slicing, and time re-play interactivity.
