    You don't have to install the gateway on the same server

    Install it on a Windows VM that would be able to access data source

     

    We have one gateway, that has access to both Oracle and SQL server data sources

    I have a Raspberry Pi/Linux server that runs MariaDB with the dataset I'd like refreshed. Is the solution to install the onprem gateway on that always-on machine inside a Windows VM (headless)? That, in turn, should allow me to toggle on the Schedule Refresh, every day after midnight, so I have the newest dataset for the report when opening it on mobile, even when not on WiFi but on 5G/outside of the LAN, correct?

    What configuration you should perform on the PBI Cloud server to connect to the windows virtual server where the gateway will be installed. Thank you.
