La Business Intelligence Microsoft: Sharepoint

…Gemini vient donc concurrencer sérieusement QlikView. Destiné aux utilisateurs fonctionnels, il est assez simple d'utilisation et directement intégré dans Excel.

QlikView quant à lui garde une petite avance grâce à un choix d'objets graphiques un peu plus large et une personnalisation des scripts de chargement un peu plus forte. Mais ce dernier argument ne pèse peut être pas autant pour un utilisateur non technique qui recherche avant tout la simplicité.
N'oublions pas que Gemini reste une beta de version 1 ( Nb: QlikView est en version 9). Il reste donc surement des choses à découvrir avant la sortie de la version finale prévue pour le premier semestre 2010... To be continued...

Office Web Apps : Office Web Apps Coming to Windows Live

Office Web Apps Coming to Windows Live

Today is an exciting day for us! We are making available Excel, Word and PowerPoint Web Apps for a select group of Windows Live users as part of the Office Web Apps Technical Preview. While the initial functionality is modest it will expand over time. As we get closer to the release of Office 2010 we will make the Office Web Apps available to more Windows Live users.

This early peek at the Office Web Apps will include high-fidelity viewing of Word, Excel and PowerPoint files in the browser. Invitees will also be able to edit Excel and PowerPoint files. Over time we’ll add OneNote Web App and the ability to edit Word files as well. Stay tuned to this blog to hear more about the upcoming features.

Slides from my TechEd Brazil Sessions

Brian finally got around to uploading my slides from two of my presentations. The decks aren’t scripted so if you weren’t at my talk you might be missing some of the context required to understand what I was talking about, but there’s a lot of content in there which may still be useful if you’re trying to wrap your head around what’s coming in VSTS 2010.

MS Project 2010

Goodbye Portfolio Server

Okay, so you are only saying goodbye to the name and the standalone server product. 2010 brings a combined Project Server and Portfolio Server — a single server product offering called Project Server 2010.

The new Project Server 2010 will contain the functionality of both Project Server and Portfolio Server, plus a few new features. You get a consistent UI, commands and centralized administration.
