Book Reviews of Delivering Business Intelligence with Microsoft SQL Server 2005: Utilize Microsoft's Data Warehousing, Mining & Reporting Tools to Provide Critical Intelligence to A

Book Review: Good overview of BI
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is a good introduction to the Business Intelligence features of SQL 2005. For people new to the topic, it provides a clear explanation of the concepts, before moving on to implementing a complete solution for a fictitious company. It clearly demonstrates the use of the various BI features of SQL 2005 and gets you going on each them - Integration Services for loading the data, Analysis services for processing the cube, and Reporting Services for providing access to reports. But you will probably need other books or training to make the most each of the different features.
