Free server sql database

[pedroccamaraDBI]

Hello everyone

I'm having some issues here accessing an sql database of a client. I'm trying to find out the reason why my pbi is so slow accessing it. It used to be faster. I know it could be several reasons and i believe most of them i've excluded.
What i would like is to try to access an sql database to try to do some reports in power bi. Is there any free server and database to access?
I don't need any software, just a place to access any kind of data through an sql database connection
Thanks a lot
Pedro
P.S. More than 40 people saw this post and no answer so far. Did i say something weird?

You install this software on your PC, setup your test SQL server, and do your tests.  It is free to use, and quick to learn.

Hi @lbendlin 
Thank you for your answer. I don't understand nothing about working with SQL server.
Now, i know, i think, the problem is on the "other side" but i would like to try another connection to any sql server. Can you tell me what do i need this software for?
