Hi Community!
PBI uses oracle as a data source, recently we have noticed that pbi refresh and Direct Query locks tables(native queries=ON, without default ORDER BY). Smth like this but with Oracle https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Power-BI-data-refresh-locking-all-other-users-out-of-databa.... Are there options to fix this(pages with aggregates in DQ mode have bad performance)? Option (as in SQL Server) with SELECT * FROM tbl NOLOCK is not available in Oracle..
