Get it while it's hot :D
Anything worth in this release?
The two big highlights are DQM support for relational sources and enhanced mobile experience with the new iPad app. There have been some additions to the list of Active Report tools in Report Studio too.
Oh, and for pure relational sources accessed via DQM, you can now include text in crosstab cells. Yippee! :-)
There are a couple of enhancements in Business Insight Advanced too - for example the ability to rename queries.
Cheers!

I see.
Good to know but too bad that none of them are any use for us right now. :-\
I'll check the text in crosstab but no requirements there either...
thanks
I guess you must be using some obscure data source? The introduction of DQM across a wider range of data sources than in the initial release could introduce some really nice improvements in performance (provided you are reporting off data from a DQM supported data source)
Oh, you can also include Active Reports within Business Insight in this release too.
Cheers!
MF.
Wider range of data sources?
Hmm... I have to go read the new release. :)
Initially was supported for SAP, Essbase and TM1.
The current company I work with does not have Business Insight (old Go Dashboard) license and active reports also need enhanced consumer license that's not purchased.
Out of all DQM supported data sources, only TM1 is there but it's in older 32-version and having issues with upgrade negotiation to 9.5 64-bit that's being worked on.
May be by that time, we'll have RP3 released. ;D
Supported DQM sources now include Netezza, SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, Microsoft Analysis Services etc.
Cheers!
MF.
Nice... That covers most data sources. :)
Thanks for information MF.
As of this release, the 64-bit Content Manager also supports Series-7 Namespaces.

Yes - that too! Thanks Mr B :)
PS - hope you haven't started picking up any nasty accents over on the other side of the pond! :-)

But does that mean I can now have DQM process setup for 64 bit server for relational database used for reporting and query and experience better performance . Or the report server still needs 32 bit library.
DQM accesses data sources via JDBC, you you don't need the traditional 32/64 bit client libraries at all if you are using purely DQM, plus you will be able to use the 64 bit C10 report service.
If you want to use CQM then you will still need the 32 bit client libraries to access your data sources, and you will need to use the 32 bit C10 report service. You can of course have both - running either on separate servers or using different port numbers on the same server, then set up routing rules to utilise the 64 bit service for DQM packages and the 32 bit service for CQM.
