Crescent is interactively visualizing data, quickly analytical insights, and generally having fun with data!
Crescent is reporting services’ new tool targeted at data consumers to visually explore their data, answer ad-hoc questions with ease, and to present and collaborate with others in a SharePoint environment. Crescent is a thin browser experience and is working against a BI Semantic Model. BI Semantic Model is available on the client through the Excel-based Power Pivot modeling tool, or on the server through Analysis Services Tabular project with Denali CTP3.
Not only did we adopt the Visual Studio 2010 shell for BI Development Studio for report design, but we also re-architected our integration with Visual Studio in general for RDLC designer and report viewer controls. This will be available with the upcoming next version of Visual Studio and enable much more simultaneous availability of SQL Server Reporting Services functionality in Visual Studio as well.
The feature pack for SQL Server “Denali” CTP3 is available here.
