Recorded July 14, 2017
In this episode, John and Jason look specifically the July 2017 updates to Power BI in the Desktop, the service, and to the On-Premises Data Gateway. Additionally, we talk about the fact that in September, we’ll be recording in front of a live audience at the Microsoft Ignite conference in Orlando!
Topics include:
What’s in the new Power BI Desktop Client
– Table & matrix visual
– Custom visuals store
New On-Premises Data Gateway in July
– Keeps the mashup (Power Query) engine in sync with Desktop update
No changes to the new Premium licensing SKU yet for Power BI
Power BI Reporting Server licensing questions
Microsoft Workplace Analytics goes General Availability
Power BI web part is GA, but it still says”Preview” in the service. What’s up with that?
Thanks for putting the updates into perspective! As a Power BI enthusiast, but not expert, I don’t always know how the new or changed features will effect me. This examples in this episode were emPOWERing and POWERful. 🙂
