Yveau, thanks for your input.
I have a few questions on replication:
1. What type of replication will fit for this scenario ?
2. Does replication supports operations on data prior to dump into another database ?

I just got comments on what I was designing, no new ideas for which I was looking for. Anyhow, this was quite helpful.
1. Any comments/suggestion on above design.
Why not use SQL Server 2005 replication in stead of "a service that will fetch the data from transactional database, compile it, and dump into the reporting database" ? It's perfect for the job described and does all the error handling and other stuff for you. Note that you do NOT want mirroring, replication is the feature you need.
2. Any other better idea for load balancing for the above situation.
No, that is the it should be done ! I've set up this scenario many times, and it works like a charm.
Hope this helps ...
