- 9. Integration options for Power BI • Ingesting data into Power BI - choices • ETL and ELT defined • Microsoft platform - right tool for the job • Cost, complexity, scalability • Decision matrix 9
- 10. Microsoft platform tools • Power Query • Power BI dataflows • SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) • Stream Analytics (Power BI and data lake) • Azure Data Factory – mapping dataflows 10
- 11. Power Query • Brings data into a Power BI Desktop model – many built in connectors • Allows for transformations, appending and merging tables, create new columns, etc. • Doesn’t persist the data in storage – transforms as it moves data into a Power BI model • Uses the M language – a sequential data transformation language 11
- 12. Demo Power Query • Connectors • GUI • M language 12
- 13. Power Query segue into Power BI dataflows • Many power users and analysts have become quite proficient at ETL using Power Query and the M language • Organizations wanted a way to reuse and share the work and data from these power users • Power BI dataflows bridges the gap between enterprise ETL and self-service analytics 13
- 14. Bridge the gap between enterprise and self-service Power BI. 14 Data Flows
- 15. Power BI dataflows • Uses the Power Query GUI in the cloud • Allows you to persist (store) data in the cloud to be used by many Power BI users • Schedule data refresh • Linked datasets allow for reusability of existing dataflows to create new dataflows 15
- 16. Demo Power BI dataflows • Access the GUI • GUI features • M language • Scheduled refresh • Governance added to Power BI service 16
- 17. SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) • Free with SQL Server license – uses visual studio for development environment • On-prem Windows App – GUI-based - drag and drop without coding • Pipeline architecture, extract transform and load tool • More robust, but also more complex – ETL developer • On-prem data warehouse ingestion • Control Flow – Sequential and Parallel conditional processing of tasks • Data Flow – In memory, pipeline data transformations 17
- 18. SSIS demo 18
- 19. Azure Stream Analytics • Works in tandem with Azure Event Hub to stream data into your data lake and Power BI • Big data processing for specific report and data warehouse ingestion • Real-time data analysis 19
- 21. Demo Stream Analytics & Power BI 21
- 22. Azure Data Factory • Browser-based Azure (cloud) application for ETL/ELT • Cost is usage based – pay for the amount of data you load • Originally a “Lift and Shift” technology for moving large files into the cloud • Version 2 has recently added a GUI components • SSIS, data flows, wrangling data flows • Enterprise level • DevOps, alerting, scheduling, test/QA/prod environments • Pipelines can manage multiple technologies 22
- 23. In summary • These tools all share the same fundamentals of loading and transforming data so that Power BI can produce useful analytics to help your company make better business decisions • Decision matrix – how do I decide? • Continuously evolving stack of technologies 23

- I’m an eager analyst in a small company (business unit within a larger company). I have business data sitting in a bunch of flat files and I’m not going to bother IT with any of this yet (e.g. resources, politics, competence). I have a lot to figure out! How am I going to: Prepare, Store, Model, Visualize, and Share? On top of all that, how am I going to: Have this perform super fast (perhaps by storing data in-memory)? Do it myself (self-service)?? Can one tool do It all? This used to be a disjointed process, with upstream data prep and modeling handled by multiple people, often in IT.
- The 2 keys: Properly staged data Good enterprise BI tools Focus on 1. Conforming Dimensions – shared across facts 2. Clean metadata layers “insulating” business users from the source data Nirvana state of Self-Service BI is only possible with this type of approach EXAMPLE: Jamba Juice needed to shift from silos of accurate data to conforming dimensions in order to create and support the desired Executive Dashboard
