Gateways/Refresh

‎12-01-2022 01:34 PM

Just wondering if my assumption here is correct... 

 

Running a refresh via a gateway in the PowerBI Service, to on prem/cloud sources, mitigates or reduces trying to refresh a fat RAM heavy dataset in the desktop app.

 

Or is this nonsense?  All on PPU capacity in the service btw

Hi @Anonymous 

 

That is correct when refreshing in the PBI Service the RAM is used in the PBI Service to refresh the data.
