Operational Business Intelligence Application, Part I Infrastructure is the Key to Success

This is a great series of articles...

Operational Business Intelligence Application, Part I Infrastructure is the Key to Success: "An enterprise infrastructure for operational business intelligence applications consists of two major components:
Technical infrastructure, such as hardware, middleware and database management system (DBMS)


Non-technical infrastructure, such as standards, metadata, business rules and policies
A word of warning – don’t expect to buy an operational business intelligence turnkey solution. An operational BI environment evolves over time with its infrastructure!"

I very much disagree with the positive spin on SSRS SSAS integration presented in this article. The author should really balance it a bit with the "other side of the story" such as the need to rely on the oledb driver for any serious applications, the lack of drilldown functionality (unless you like to watch the "report is being generated" screen) and various other shortcomings. Oh yeah, and SSRS doesnt even support KPI's, you have to program the presentation.
