PowerPivot for SharePoint
PowerPivot for SharePoint provides server-side support for PowerPivot workbooks by 
extending the capabilities of SharePoint and Excel Services in SharePoint . SharePoint provides 
centralized management of the PowerPivot workbooks, and Excel Services manages data 
queries and the rendering of the query results in the browser . Installation of PowerPivot for 
SharePoint adds services to the SharePoint farm and includes a document library template, 
content types, dashboards, and Web parts that provide access to PowerPivot reports and 
support monitoring their usage .
Architecture
PowerPivot for SharePoint requires SharePoint Enterprise Edition and Excel Services . You 
must install Analysis Services with SharePoint Integration on a SharePoint Web front end . In 
SharePoint Central Administration, you configure the PowerPivot System Service and activate 
the PowerPivot feature on the target site collection . PowerPivot for SharePoint uses a scalable 
architecture (shown in Figure 10-12) that allows you to add or remove instances as needed 
when you require more or less processing capacity . When you add an instance, the Share-
Point autodiscovery feature ensures that the new instance can be found, and the PowerPivot 
System Service has a load balancing feature that will use the new instance when possible .
