All data movement happens inside customer network
A WebI report is created “on the fly” in the server, analyzes queries, and will execute them
Leverage infrastructure that has been deployed in BusinessObjects Enterprise – not in the laptop, and not in the cloud

Create model, before story
Live universe connectivity consists of using live query panel
