Microsoft Business Intelligence (BI) Resources

Dan English posts a number of MS BI resources from a PowerView session.

I don’t have access to an MS Server environment so you will have to evaluate these resources on your own.

For historical reasons I have mostly worked in *nix server environments. I have never really been tempted to experiment with MS server products, although I must confess I have had my share of laptops/desktops that ran Windows software. (I have *nix and Windows boxes sharing monitors/keyboard even now.)

With hardware prices where they are, perhaps I should setup a Windows server box (behind my firewall, etc.) so I can test some of these applications.

Wondering what it would take to put subject identity tests, a semantic shim as it were on top of these products to offer some enhanced value to their users? True enough, if popular MS would absorb it in a future release but isn’t that what progress is about?
