Abstract: Microsoft's Business Intelligence stack consists of numerous products, some of which appear to do the same thing, most of which use SharePoint as a presentation platform. Which product is useful for which purpose? Which ones present the biggest administrative nightmare for the SharePoint admin, and which ones are the biggest pains for end users? Should I build my charts and graphs in PowerPivot, PowerView, PerformancePoint, or a product that hasn't got an initial P in it someplace? Alara Rogers will discuss the topic of Microsoft Business Intelligence products, their uses, and their interaction with SharePoint, in a somewhat less than serious tone.

Bio: Alara Rogers is one of the founding partners of Liquid Mercury Solutions, a Baltimore-based consulting company that focuses entirely on SharePoint and its close relatives. Alara has been working in business intelligence, systems analysis and data massage for nearly 20 years, and has been involved with Microsoft's BI products for 9 of them. She has spoken at SharePoint Saturday Baltimore on business intelligence and the Baltimore SharePoint User's Group about SQL Server best practices and exploits as they pertain to SharePoint.
