2.4. Summary

We began this chapter with the question of why we even consider SharePoint integration, and we end it with a successful SharePoint integrated mode install. With step-by-step walkthroughs, this chapter provided the details of each step and things to consider when configuring your servers.

You should now have a report server that is in SharePoint integrated mode, and with your new setup, you will immediately start getting the benefits of SharePoint integrated mode.

Even though there aren't a lot of steps in installing reporting server in integrated mode, things have to be done in a certain order. As long as the installation requirements are met, installing Reporting Services will be pretty easy after your install, as it will be the same thing over and over again.

Now that your server is set up in SharePoint integrated mode, enjoy having reports on SharePoint document libraries and maintaining one central location for your content and reporting needs.
