Power View is designed for data exploration. You use this tool when you do not
know what question you should be asking, but want to explore and discover
patterns in your data. For developers, it is important to put away your assump-
tions about Report Builder when working with Power View, The approach is
not really to give your users a prebuilt Power View report, but to give them
a model that they can explore on their own—or with PowerPivot—to build a
model and explore it using Power View.
An example of Power View's killer feature—the animated bubble chart—is
shown in Figure A-4. (The animation doesn't show in the figure here, of course,
but it really is animated!)
