layer. They consist of pivot tables as well as reports and dashboards that are
hosted in Microsoft SQL Reporting Services.

IT Analytics Solution uses the following software components:

■

Symantec Management Platform 7.0–The primary component that interacts
and accesses the functionality that IT Analytics Solution provides.

■

Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services–Used as the primary data layer for
the dashboards, pivot tables, and reports.

■

Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services–Used as the presentation layer for
the reports and dashboards.

■

Microsoft Office Web Components 11 (2003)–Used as one of the presentation
layers to provide raw access to browse the cubes through pivot tables.

IT Analytics Solution is the foundation solution that provides all of the functional
components. The solution is a prerequisite solution for IT Analytics Packs that
does not require a license (similar to Symantec Management Platform). However,
on its own, IT Analytics Solution does not contain any cubes or reports.

The actual definitions for the cubes, reports, and dashboards are contained within
the IT Analytics Packs that align with the existing Symantec suites. These
definitions provide the business value for IT Analytics Solution.

The following IT Analytics Packs are available for IT Analytics Solution 7.0:

■

IT Analytics Asset Management Pack

■

IT Analytics Client and Server Management Pack

■

IT Analytics Symantec Endpoint Protection Pack
