Row-level Security Just Got Better: Passing Report Credentials to Analysis Services in SQL Server 2016
A new ground-breaking feature in SQL Server 2016 allows report user context to be passed through shared data sources, enabling role-based, row-level security. This feature doesn’t require complex administration configurations, service principal delegation, Kerberos, Claims/Windows Token conversion or impersonation. You may not be as excited as I am about this unless you’ve also lived through the tedious configuration process we’ve had to endure for many years until recently.
