Report Catalog Database

Hi All,

In a scale out deployment, which component sends the query to the database, the report catalog or the Report Manager?

Report Manager is just a report portal. Running a report in report manager will send a request to the RS scale out deployment. If you are using a load balancer, it will send the request to one of the server nodes in the scale out deployments. This server node (a RS web service) will then execute the report which includes running queries, retrieving data, processing data, and rendering the result and sending it back to the client (which is report manager in this case).
