Ok. Thanks!!!

I will try to create a Windows VM with the gateway, and we will see, whether it will work ☺

Thank you for your great answers!

If it will work out, I will mark your answer as the Solution.

Also one little question: What do you mean: "only MySQL"? and on "report Server"? because as I understand we are talking about PBI Service?

Do you mean, that I chose not a very good DB for my data source? Could you please give me an advice? (I am very new to all this stuff).

    Hi Anonymous ,

    no its all good 😄 

    please use cloud If you can ...the Report Server (on premise solution) has less feature than the cloud.

    Do you have a choise in your database? Otherwise I would always prefer MSSQL :).
