Worksheet

Connection mode decision sheet

A single sheet, one line per dataset. Columns hold source system, row count, longest acceptable staleness and peak users. Others hold chosen mode (import, live, hybrid), refresh time, view in front (yes or no) and timed test result. A last box names who gets the failed-refresh alert.

Name: ______________________   Business: ______________________   Date: ______________
