    Well, you could store PBIX files on an EC2 instance. Or you could install and deploy Power BI Report Server on an EC2 instance, but the Power BI Service is the Power BI Service. It runs in Microsoft's cloud (Azure) as Software as a Service. There is no running it somewhere else.

      BalaKrish Did you find any more relevant information on this. And the limitations to using Power BI Report Server in AWS?

        cyclist007 I chose to have the PowerBI service with AWS datasources. It worked well..
