Microsoft Reporting Server SSRS 2012 Architecture
<p>We are planning to deploy reporting service using Microsoft Reporting Server 2012. As I understand it, there will be three components;</p>

<ol>
<li>Database (SQL Server)</li>
<li>SSRS (Reporting Server)</li>
<li>IIS (Web front end) - SharePoint (alternate Front end)</li>
</ol>

<p>In setting up the Proof-of-Concept, the dev installed SSRS and SQL Server on same box (let's call it the DB server) and is redirecting client browser to a URL on DB Server from web front end.</p>

<p>Is it possible to architect the solution so that the web front end is the only destination for client browsers, SSRS lives on its own dedicated server separate from both the Web server and the DB Server?</p>

<p>How will authentication work in this scenario? We are using integrated authentication using Enterprise AD.</p>
