Service-Oriented Architecture and BI Platform Management :-
BusinessObjects Enterprise is designed as a services-oriented architecture for flexible system configuration. Each system service—such as report caching, scheduling, or analytic
engines can be set up and controlled from within the CMC. This gives
administrators the ability to add, remove, stop, restart, and reconfigure
system services directly from the web environment. They can also configure
services while the system is still running, eliminating the need for a system restart. The webbased environment enables administrators to access and manage the system from any web
browser with system access rights.

  1. It can be a lot of work managing a project for a company. One has to keep track of all aspects, from payroll to what progress each member of the team makes every day. This can be done with a notepad and pencil, but it is much easier to accomplish with the use of a computer.
