Help with large dataset
Hi Guys,
I have to build a report using a datasource that is almost 50 GB in size. I need the dashboard to be responsive so doing direct query is out of the question. How can I go about it. I do have P1 sku capacity. Can i build a dataset in import mode of that size. What options do I have?

If you use best practice to create the data model using a star schema and with the vertipaq compression the size should be a lot smaller than what you currently have in terms of your data source size.
You can use DAX Studio to see how large the model is and where you can remove columns to save space.
