In Chapter 2, you saw the benefits that the 64-bit x64 platform provides for the SQL Server relational database engine. As you might expect, the advantages of the x64 architecture don’t stop there. SQL Server 2005 is much more than a relational database engine. Since the release of SQL Server 7 in1998, SQL Server has been an industry leader in the Business Intelligence (BI) market. Microsoft was the first major relational database vendor to include BI capabilities in its products (rather than offering them as additional-cost add-ins). This inclusion helped make BI a widely available and affordable technology. BI and its related online analytical processing (OLAP) and reporting technologies have moved from being niche technologies found only in the largest of enterprises into the mainstream of corporate computing. One of the driving factors behind the rapid growth of BI is its ability to let organizations derive more meaningful information from the growing stores of data and information that they possess. SQL Server 2005 extends Microsoft’s BI position in the database industry by providing an end-to-end BI stack that consists of Analysis Services, Integration Services, Reporting Services, and Data Mining.
