PowerBi hardware configuration

Hello everyone,

 

I need help with server configuration for PowerBi. I try to find something here, but found nothing to help me.

I got the task to calculate the costs of deploying PowerBI in our company. I basically understand license, but I'm not sure hardware configuration for server we would need and I need to include server costs.

So I have two main questions:

  1. With how many users is it good to switch from PRO to Premium?
  2. Server - hardware configuration - assumption is that we would have:
    • 250 users (in average 30 users at one moment)
    • 250 – 300 unique apps (more reports in one app)
    • Average app would have dataset with 5-7 mil rows
    • Biggest apps (7-10 aps) would have dataset with 400 mil rows

I hope I gave enough information and I wrote it clearly 😊

 

Thank you for your answers
