Building a Reporting Service role

The Sitecore Reporting Service fetches reporting data from various data sources. For example, the collection or reporting databases to use in Sitecore reporting applications, such as Experience Analytics.

The Reporting Service can run on the same server alongside other server features, or can run independently on a dedicated server. If the Reporting Service is underutilized, consider placing it onto the Business Management Server, which is also a low use server. This server requires no Commerce Server or Dynamics AX components.

See the Configure a Reporting Service server topic for detailed instructions.
