Unassigning a workspace to a deployment pipeline stage It is possible to unassign a workspace from a deployment pipeline stage. To do this, click the menu for the stage and select Unassign workspace. The stage will need to be empty if you’d like to reassign the same workspace to this stage. Automating deployment pipelines Most […]
Creating a deployment pipeline To create a deployment pipeline for Power BI, log in to PowerBI.com with your work or school account. We need to be aware that deployment pipelines require the workspaces used to be deployed to either a Premium capacity or for PPU to be enabled in the workspace. After logging into PowerBI.com, […]
Using usage reports Usage for reports and dashboards are surfaced with the help of reports that are generated by the Power BI service. Usage metrics reports can be generated by selecting the View usage metrics report under the menu button for each report or dashboard, as shown in Figure 14.14: Figure 14.14 – Menu for […]
Configuring a dataset scheduled refresh It is very important to have not only accurate but also timely data for your reports. Looking at a sales forecast report for last year, or even last week’s inventory report, may lead you to making the wrong business decisions. To keep your imported Power BI report data up to […]
Configuring row-level security group membership As you saw in Chapter 5, Designing a Data Model, you can use DAX to filter your reports for row-level security. Once you publish your dataset to the Power BI service, you can enforce row-level security by assigning users or groups to the roles you created. Power BI uses Azure […]
Providing access to datasets One of the great things about Power BI is that you can reuse datasets from other reports to create your own reports. This allows you to minimize the memory used by Power BI and keep all your reports consistent. If you have ever been to a meeting where everyone is arguing […]
Evolution of cloud computing architectures Serverless comes about from another architectural shift in the compute layer and is an extension and evolution of PaaS. When you use PaaS resources to host a website or application or execute code, you are still using servers; you specify a set of underlying compute resources and pay for those. […]
What is the Shared Responsibility model? The Shared Responsibility model is a security model and is critically important to understand when operating resources within a public or hybrid cloud environment. You should understand when it is your responsibility to provide the appropriate level of security and where it’s not your responsibility but that of the […]
Comparing the cloud computing service models Each service model has its characteristics. The most appropriate model is defined by how much you want (or need/mandate) to control, secure, and manage your resources, for example, your apps, code, data, networks, security, and so on. From the last section, we can now define what the service models […]
Why cloud computing? Cloud computing adoption is often driven more by the advantages and benefits of its business and operational model than its technology model or location factors. Cloud computing doesn’t have to be a binary decision between a fully public cloud and no public cloud. The benefit of the cloud computing model is that […]
