PowerPivot Twins!

Please note, we have uploaded in DRAFT form the PowerPivot for SharePoint Installation guides.   We have propped this information on the page:

PowerPivotGeek.com Server Install

We encourage you to go to this site, review the documents, and provide feedback on what works (or does not) directly on the PowerPivotGeek.com Server Install page.

There are four guides in the works:

• PowerPivot for SharePoint installation on a Single server: This is the All-in-One Departmental server configuration.
• PowerPivot for SharePoint Farm Server Installation: This is the multi-server SharePoint farm installation that has alot of idiosyncracies. Please review before undertaking this endeavor!
• PowerPivot on a new single server with a dedicated DB server: Under development
• Reporting Services integrated with SharePoint: Under development
