PowerBI prem gen2 Enterprise semantic model should be built per Subject or across multi data domain?

[Anonymous]

Given that we will have be having Power BI premium gen2 and semantic model for the enterprise should the semantic model be built per data data domain say example HR data domain which may have 10+ sub data domains ? 

Or do you recommend mixing HR and Finance data domain as an example for cross domain semantic enterprise model?

My assumptions are we should build enterpise workspace and in that have Enterprise Semantic models per data domain ( example : HR Enterprise Semantic model, Finance Enterprise Semantic model etc ).  We believe having simplifed enterprise models may work better instead of having complex data models which join data from multiple cross domains.

Hi @Anonymous 

You are right where it is easier and better to first create domain specific data domains. This is also because very often data is only related to each data domain (EG: HR will have people while Finance will have customers data and they are not related)

Maybe later it would make sense to cross multiple domains where the data is in both datasets?
