Hi I am having basic knowledge on SSRS and its been long time I worked on it. I am going to migrate SSRS 2008R2 reports to SSRS 2014 server.
So is that possible to transfer all existing reports without migrating database, connecting old database from SSRS reporting configuration service 2014?
If possible do I need to create new reportserver Database in the Old database because I am unable to connect to the existing reportserver database in the old DB from configuration services 2014?

We are planing to move our on premise database to Azure DB. We have SSRS reports as well. Is there any solution with Azure database for SSRS?
Unfortunately SSRS is not supported on Azure SQL Database. If you need SSRS it makes more sense to use a SQL VM on Azure or a SQL Server instance on-premises.
In this URL you will find deployment strategies for SSRS on Azure SQL VM.
You can deploy SSRS to a VM and use Azure SQL Database as the data source, but maybe is cheaper to have your databases on the same SQL VM.
Once you deploy the VM containing SSRS, you can then connect SSRS to an Azure SQL DB. This article discusses connecting Azure SQL Database to SSRS.
If you want to vote for SSRS to be offered as PaaS service please vote here. However, here Microsoft states is not planning to add SSRS to Azure SQL Database in the future.
I don't know how to open existing reports on existing report server using SSDT.
I update my computer to SQL Server 2014 and SSDT.
Previously when I used SQL Server 2008, I used Report Builder to open existing reports by connecting existing Report Server.
How could I do like that using SSDT?
SSDT-BI is the SQL Server 2014 equivalent of the Business Intelligence Developer Studio (BIDS) development environment shipped with earlier versions of SQL Server. It is not a replacement for Report Builder, which is a seperate development tool. For SQL Server 2014 you will need to download the latest version of Report Builder from the Microsoft website:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-nz/download/details.aspx?id=42301
Source Environment:
1.) SharePoint 2010
2.) 1 site collection
3.) 8 sites in that site collection.
The requirement i have is to move the site collection along with all the data from 2010 to 2013.
Currently i am planning to migrate the content database.
I have got this link and i am following it.
But my source server has SQL SERVER 2008 and destination server has SQL SERVER 2012.
Is this correct what i am doing or is there any better way to do this without using content database migration? Anyone any ideas?
best way is database migration.i do this for migration from sp 2007 to 2013.all data and configuration was migrated.
I want to create a report in Reporting Services in SQL Server 2008 but I don't know how can I do that. I create a report in SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio but I don't know the relation between this report and Reporting Services in SQL Server 2008.
How can I use Reporting Services and create a report in it?
The report server is where you store your reports so that people can run them centrally. You can deploy your report from BIDS to the report server.
You can also log in to the report server and run a tool called report builder to create and deploy reports without having to use BIDS.
Have a look at the following link for how to get started with reporting services:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb522672(v=sql.105).aspx
Since you already create report, you can directly upload your .rdl file directly to reporting service. If you don't know how to configure your reporting service, please refer to here . You can also use reporting service manage URL to see your uploaded report, and you can also open from there to use report builder to directly edit your report.
I have the following scenerio:-
1) Server 1 - SQL Server 2008 R2 Express - Collation SQL_Latin1_General_CS_As
2) Server 2 - SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard - Collation SQL_Latin1_General_CI_AS
I want to move the database from Server 1 to Server 2.
I tried backup and restore but does not work may be because of different collation. I also tried export but I'm getting some error. Please help me solving the issue.
The way is to use ssis (dts) wizards or, if the db is small - to do db export-import with data export option with help of data exporting embedded in management studio, and finally - try to do simple detach-attach of db
There is separate Database Publishing Wizard, available for download
Overview
SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard enables the deployment
of SQL Server databases into a hosted environment on either a SQL
Server 2000 or 2005 server. It generates a single SQL script file
which can be used to recreate a database (both schema and data) in a
shared hosting environment where the only connectivity to a server is
through a web-based control panel with a script execution window. If
supported by the hosting service provider, the Database Publishing
Wizard can also directly upload databases to servers located at the
shared hosting provider.
Optionally, SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard can integrate
directly into Visual Studio 2005 and/or Visual Web Developer 2005
allowing easy publishing of databases from within the development
environment.
