Hi charleshale 

Do you mean:

You have large data, if importing the large data into Power BI Desktop, it will consume much RAM of your server,

you want to store data in the instance on Azure.

 

I'm not very clear about your requirements.

There are some reference how to integrate Power BI and Azure

    Thank you, Maggie.  My requirement would be to essentially use PBIX files on a desktop instance that I access through remote connection on an azure cloud  instance.   As I understand it, it's possible to set this up, but one needs reasonably sophisticated IT chops because one has to configure the instance.  I am wondering if anyone knows of a turnkey SAAS type offering for this.
