    Hi , Anonymous 

    The Enterprise Data Gateway provided by Power BI is completely free to download and use.You don't need a license.

    The primary role of the Enterprise Data Gateway is to act as a bridge that allows the Power BI Service to access our on-premises data sources

    Enterprise gateways are divided into standard gateways and personal gateways.

    In general, we recommend using an enterprise gateway, which is more powerful and allows users to share the gateway.

    The following are the main differences between the two types of gateways:

    standard gateway

    personal gateway

    Support for multiple users

    YES

    NO

    Support cloud services

    Support PowerBI、PowerAPPs、Power Automate and so on

    Only support PowerBI

    In what mode

    Service

    Application

    Whether a cluster can be created

    YES

    NO

    Whether a key is required

    YES

    NO

    Support for link mode

    all mode

    only support import mode

    Whether can migrate,restore,take over gateway

    YES

    NO

    Whether non-computer administrators can install

    NO

    YES

    If you want  to download , you can enter this:

    Power BI Gateway | Microsoft Power BI

     

    For more information, you can refer to :
