Comments on the integration of Reporting Services and SharePoint 2010

options to integrate SharePoint 2010 and Reporting Services depend on the configuration of servers, the easiest that requires no further intervention on a single server, but when it comes to more than one there various configurations.

I was struck by the configuration of 2 servers is one of the most common plants in our customers. That there are 2 variants show them the picture below:

With this setup you must install SharePoint on both servers. First configure the SharePoint farm and then install the database server as Report Server requires SharePoint object model at hand.

When running SharePoint 2010 Wizard you indicate that you are connecting to an existing farm and do not need the Central Administration. If you have already installed it does not affect you but I recommend you uninstall it because you're not going to use, for that you must run the wizard again and tell SharePoint that want to stay connected to the farm but do not want to host the Central Administration on this computer.

The second configuration was the one that caught my attention, I show below:

This not install Reporting Services on the server database, but in the Front End Server or Face and then you need not install SharePoint Server 2010 in database since you need the SharePoint OM is the Report Server.

For licensing depending on the version of SQL Server uses the server database and SharePoint in the Front End server you agree that you are using one or the other. Since SharePoint 2010 under its prices the core but Calls increase in value and the value of the Core of Sql Server 2008 R2 Enterprise is far more expensive than SharePoint 2010 Core Enterprise, so you must play with your versions and numbers and see which suits you more. You have to ask a Microsoft Authorized Reseller prices because they are public and you can get incorrect information in the network.
