OLAP Cube
- 6 years ago
paulineCom , Power Bi does not create OLAP cube. It supports star schema or snowflakes schema.

Hi
For smaller dataset, it's perfectly fine to load data into powerbi and create a model. But if data is huge you can create an SSAS tabular model connect to PowerBI.
Appreciate a Kudos! 🙂
If this helps and resolves the issue, please mark it as a Solution! 🙂

Thank you for this answer, but that does not answer my questions which are :
I want to know if the dataset taht we build in Power BI Desktop is the same as a OLAP cube built in SSAS ?
If it's not the same, i want to know if is it possible to create a OLAP cube in power BI ?
