    Philosophically Power BI is a downstream system, It does not guarantee any reliable storage. It is based on a "Flush and Fill" methodology. Fabric changes that equation, but only a little bit.

     

    Don't base your storage strategy on Power BI or Fabric.  Use proper dedicated storage systems as your upstream source.

Thank You lbendlin , I have nothing at my disposal. 

PowerBI is my only extract or integration

I was looking at free storage systems but that would not be good governance
