Attention Power BI enthusiasts, what I am about to say is huge! AtScale now lets you get Live Query access to cloud data warehouses within a full, multi-dimensional model. This means you get live access to your cloud data with the same utility as connecting to SSAS.
Why is this such huge news? To date, there has never been a great, live query experience on Power BI for Snowflake, BigQuery, RedShift, Databricks and even Azure Synapse SQL. Historically, Power BI has only supported “DirectQuery” access for cloud data sources. “Live Query” provided by AtScale’s DAX connector will deliver extreme performance benefits for these applications. Coupled with the AtScale semantic layer, the combination of analytics-ready data with the ease of use of Power BI is a terrific combination.
