Power BI Premium Performance Monitoring

I have a Power BI Premium instance, and would like to monitor the performance to know if I need to upgrade the size and also to know how much usage the machine is getting (views, etc).  

 

I found the "Power BI Usage Metrics" view, but it has two limitations that I am trying to overcome.  First, I am running this in a multi-tenant setup, where each tenant has their own workspace, and the usage metrics seem to be limited to a single workspace.  I would like a similar report for all workspaces (preferably with the color legend being workspace!).

 

Second, I can't see any way to look at how the Power BI Premium server itself is doing.  We are slowly turning on additional customers, but I can't tell how to see if we are overloading the current server.  Is there a way to monitor this?

1. "Power BI Usage Metrics" view is only for single workspace. You can't combine multiple tenant usage into same view.

 

2. Currently, there's no detail running log of these cloud workspalce for end users.

 

I suggest you submit requests for both features on idea.

 

Regards,

I am pretty concerned that I have no way to know when user experience is degraded or when I need to upgrade.

 

I added the idea like you suggested:
