EXCEL SERVICES AND POWERPIVOT FOR SHAREPOINT
Excel Services Office Web App Server Renders Excel, Word, PowerPoint files in a browser Read/Write Limited back end data connections REST based web service No separate license required Renders Excel files in a browser Read-Only Connects to back end data Excel Web Access Web Part Render Power View reports* Interact with PowerPivot models* Calculation engine via SOAP based web services API SharePoint Enterprise CAL required
Excel Services Sharepoint 2013 Refresh workbook OLAP/Tabular interactivity SSAS Server 2012/2014 PP4SP Mode PP4SP View workbook with data model Use data model Use Power View Refresh data model Office Web Apps Server Refresh workbook (with limitations) OLAP/Tabular interactivity View/Edit workbook without data model
Refresh workbook OLAP/Tabular interactivity Sharepoint 2016 PP4SP Refresh data model SSAS Server 2016 PowerPivot Mode Use data modelUse Power View Office Online Server View/Edit workbook with or without data model
Single architecture/feature set for Excel rendering Excel Services no longer impacts SharePoint performance Licensing Available to Exchange, Skype Future Excel updates not locked to SharePoint No end user impact
Complexity of setup (One more hop) No GUI for configuration – use PowerShell only Office Online Server requires separate server and is mandatory Some deprecated features Excel Web Parts/Web Services must be added manually Power View requires SSRS Integrated mode
Deprecated Shared Data Connection Library Unattended Service Account File Access Method Throttling/restrictions Cross Domain Access Max sessions per user Load balancing scheme Changed Data Connections Libraries now optional UDF Assemblies deployed to OOS ODC files require Server to Server Auth (S2S) IT Management Dashboard not in CA IT Management Dashboard requires S2S Workbook as data source requires Kerberos(KCD) between OOS and SharePoint WFEs C2WTS Runs on OOS machine SSAS must trust OOS for EffectiveUserName Requires SSMS 2016
Power Query refresh in PowerPivot for SharePoint * Excel 2016 Data model support Data model editing support Excel JavaScript API support Closer parity with Excel 2016 client Search in filters, value field settings, Comments, print selection *Not there yet in SQL Server 2016 RTM
$Farm = Get-SPFarm $Farm.Properties.Add("WopiLegacySoapSupport", " "); $Farm.Update()
Service application and SSAS PP4SP now separate installation SSAS Instance now referred to as Power Pivot mode
PowerPivot = Power Pivot (or “Manage Data Model”) Power Query = “Get & Transform” Power View = Power View (if you can find it) Power Map = 3D Maps
Added to Excel 2013 Silverlight dependency Hidden from the ribbon by default in 2016 Requires both PowerPivot for Sharepoint and SSRS Integrated mode in SharePoint 2016
