Heterogeneous bit environments

Hello gurus -

 

Brand new to PBI.   I've got an 'mixed' enterprise environment.  Some Oracle 64 bits, some Oracle 32 bits, some mysql 32 bits, some Sql server 64 bits.   You get it.  Do I need *two* builds of power bi to communicate across my enterprise data?   Am I missing something?

Yes, you have to install both 32 bit and 64 bit Power BI Desktop to consume corresponding data provider.
