We are excited to announce significant query processing improvements in the Power BI engine around query parallelization in DirectQuery mode, which can help to accelerate query response times, specifically for DAX and MDX expressions that generate multiple storage engine (SE) queries.
» Meer informatieThanks to the latest backup and restore improvements, you can now restore a backup file even when the dataset size is near the Power BI Premium SKU limitation. You no longer need to be concerned that dataset size limits impact restorability. When restoring a dataset with the /forceRestore option, Power BI will try its best to perform the restore operation even when the available memory is limited.
» Meer informatieToday, we are excited to announce the public preview of Power BI Dataset Scale-Out, a dataset feature enabling enterprise customers to support large-scale Power BI solutions without any additional administrative overhead or infrastructure complexity.
» Meer informatieWe are excited to announce the initial release of a query performance optimization aimed at processing Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) queries more efficiently, known as “Horizontal Fusion”.
» Meer informatieWe are committed to helping our Azure Analysis Services customers unlock the enormous capabilities of Power BI as a superset of Azure Analysis Services through a smooth migration path to Power BI. As part of this effort, we are happy to announce today that Power BI has reached yet another compatibility milestone with the introduction of explicit Dataset Write permissions.
» Meer informatiePower BI APIs can support you at any scale, but there is no one-size-fits-all API. The ExecuteQueries API is a great choice at small scale. For large-scale solutions, switch to XMLA endpoints and host your datasets on Power BI Premium.
» Meer informatieAs part of our GA work for the ExecuteQueries REST API, we delivered a new Power Automate action to run queries against Power BI datasets. This action delivers a straightforward low-code/no-code experience to BI users who want to streamline repetitive, mundane tasks and processes. The purpose of this blog post is to help you get started running queries against datasets in Power Automate. It covers exporting data into csv files, building a solution to test datasets, and creating BI-driven cloud flows.
» Meer informatieWe are happy to announce that the ExecuteQueries REST API is now GA. By using this REST API, you can query datasets in Power BI from practically any modern environment on any platform, as long as you can authenticate with Azure Active Directory (AAD) and construct a Web request. The query functionality is comparable to XMLA read access, yet avoids dependencies on Analysis Services client libraries, requires no connection to XMLA endpoints, and works in Premium workspaces as well as in ordinary workspaces.
» Meer informatieToday, we are excited to announce General Availability (GA) of automatic aggregations, along with several important improvements. By using automatic aggregations in Power BI Premium, you can unlock cloud-scale data volumes for interactive analysis. Automatic aggregations import data into the dataset only at the aggregated level while leaving the detail data at the source to minimize data duplication. In this way, most BI queries can benefit from Power BI’s blazing fast query performance in import mode, while occasional detail queries can still work transparently against the data source in DirectQuery mode.
» Meer informatieToday, we’re happy to announce significant performance improvements to backup and restore operations for datasets in Power BI. Our benchmark tests with 1GB, 5GB, and 10GB datasets show backups can now be completed up to 22 times faster than before, and the time required for restore operations can also be reduced by more than 30%.
