multiple gateways on one server
kwschere No, you would need to deploy a new gateway on a different server.
Hi kwschere,
As the on-premise gateway runs as a windows service called "PBIEgwService" on the server where it is installed, I don't think it is possible to configure more than one on-premise data gateway on the same Windows server in this scenario.:smileyhappy:

This is the exact scenario that I was aiming at. Realizing that hosting and cloud solutions are becoming increasingly attractive for smaller companies, we need to be able to provide a world class reporting solution in PowerBI to these customers. They might have ERP one place, CRM somewhere else just to mention two typical systems. If the ERP hosting provider wants to provide data to their customer without uploading it somewhere, a gateway is the solution. But, in order to manage it, we need to be able to run gateway as a multi-tenant type component which can serve multiple customer with data to their respective PowerBI subscriptions.
Based on your comments I'd suggest what you have to consider is a data warehouse type solution. It's not ideal having to build somethign like that, ubt if you have multiple data sets, rather than building multiple gateways, it makes more sense to consdoidate the data for reporting pruposes and have one platform that controls access via RLS. Wouls also make standardising your reporting easier.
