Testers of the SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services Beta Program were informed yesterday that they have been accepted to the beta and that the "bits" are likely to follow very soon (early october).
Microsoft announced SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services in June at TechEd 2003. With the addition of Reporting Services, SQL Server provides the single most comprehensive data management and BI platform on the market, with integrated analytics including online analytical processing OLAP, data mining, data warehousing, extract, transform, load (ETL) tools, and data warehousing and reporting functionality. Reporting Services provides a highly comprehensive analysis and reporting solution for SQL Server.
Testers will be informed when the program begins fully in less than two weeks.
