Main Presentation:

Move Your Entire BI Platform to Azure and Power BI

Power BI is an amazing tool for end-user analytics and reporting, but if you don’t architect for it correctly it may not work right as an enterprise reporting/analytics solution. Come to this session to get actual architecture & implementation details from a real deployment that was completed for a mid-sized company (1,700+ employees). Using demos and actual documentation you will see what you need to think of for a project like this. We will be covering architecture, implementation, governance, change control, and support to get a Power BI enterprise deployment working successfully from someone that has done it! Azure Analysis Services, Azure Data Lake, Azure Logic Apps, Azure Data Factory, Azure Databricks, Snowflake, Power BI Pro, and Power BI Premium will be discussed and how each is being used in this solution as well.

Presented By:

Steve Wake is currently the Principal BI Developer at Brown and Caldwell and has experience in consulting, advertising, media, manufacturing, retail, charities, telecommunications and financial services organizations using the full on-premises Microsoft BI stack. Recent experience with the Azure services: Analysis Services, Logic Apps,  Data Factory, Databricks, Snowflake and Power BI. Steve is also very involved in the SQL community, speaking at events around the world.
