I have personally not tested it yet, but I am sure that it will be a lot easier to get data into Azure! I also did see that the Varigence have created a webinar for this here: Moving ETL Loads to Azure Part1 Webinar Content So this would fit in with their existing skills. As well as a lot of people who do know and understand SSIS, really well. Personally I know of a few people who have had some struggles. I personally think that this is great, as in the past, it has been a bit of trickery to get data from On Premise into Azure. You can read the blog post from Microsoft here: We’re on for a great Designer Summer… SSIS Feature Pack for AzureĪs you can see from the above screenshot, these are the items that are available in the SSIS Feature pack for Azure. Especially since from what I can see above, I have not seen this in other products of similar nature. And this will make their existing reports, which look really good, go from good, to be a standout. But it does bode well for the next release of the Power BI Designer.Īnd for me I think this is where I would start at looking the Power BI Designer over say using Excel as a source or using the web based version to author reports.Īs you can see from the above screenshot, it appears that there is going to be a whole host of things that you can customize within the Power BI Designer.

I am not going to go into too much detail around this, because all the information that I could find was on the blog post from Microsoft. You can read about the post from Microsoft here: Analyze and Monitor your SweetIQ Data with Power BI Summer Release of Power BI

And enable the customers to interact and see how it is performing. Whilst looking at the blog post, I have to say that this is once again a great way for customers to get quick and easy access to their data. They position themselves as provider that can leverage your local search and increase your visibility on the web.

This week, there was yet another release of a content pack for Power BI, this time it was relating to a company called Sweet IQ. Well this week there were some updates and fortunately not too many so where we go! Power BI – Sweet IQ
