Data size and limitations

Hi All, 

 

I need help on understanding if there are any limitations on the size of the data ( in terms of both rows and GB/MB) which we can import from HANA database to Power BI using import mode ? Also please help understand if there is size limit once the report is published on the report server ? 

 

Thank you

Hi @ramkula123 ,

There are many limitation in the dataset size of PowerBI, there is a 1 GB limit, per dataset, that is imported into Power BI. For PowerBI Service, users with a Power BI Pro license can create app workspaces, with a maximum 10 GB of data storage each. Other user will have a maximum 10 GB of data storage.

Here is a document related to this, I would suggest you referring to it: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-admin-manage-your-data-storage-in-power-bi

Best Regards,

Teige
