PowerPivot for Excel – Benefit and IT Governance 4
Status Quo: Data analysis with Excel
Excel is definitely the data analysis tool no.1
Excel is mostly available and can be used by everybody
But, requirements of departments continuously grow:
large data volume
multiple data sources
complex calculations and relations (computations)
more qualified reports: dynamic & aesthetic
data quality and up-to-date data
security and confidentiality
Plain Excel is sometimes not sufficient – too limited, too slow, too
insecure, inflexible, difficult to maintain and not compliant!
PowerPivot for Excel – Benefit and IT Governance 5
Use: Self Service BI with PowerPivot
PowerPivot for Excel from 2010 allows for complex ad hoc analysis
of large, distributed data without IT services
PowerPivot: Excel Add-in and SharePoint Services from Microsoft®
the departments' requirements are satisfied :
Large data volumes PowerPivot allows millions of records
Multiple data sources Simultaneous involvement of many source systems and files
Complex calculations and
relations
Analysis language DAX (extension of the Ecel formula
syntax)
Better reports: dynamic and
aesthetic
Dynamic reports with Drill-Down (im Browser)
Data quality and up-to-date data Data refresh by SharePoint timer services
Security and confidentiality PowerPivot Excels on SharePoint galleries with AD security
