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:

I don't think you understand the problem. It is impossible to have 100 different customers working for different companies with separate PowerBI subscriptions that is not to share anything but a hosting provider. For the hosting provider today's solution is to install 100 different Windows Servers and install gateway for each of these customers separately, because only one PowerBI account can be logged in at any one gateway.
Hope this clarifies the issue.
similar issue here. I've a dozen companies each with their own tenants, but the data is on a single server. I would have less of an issue if I could share workspaces across tenants in Power BI Service but that's another thread.
short of moving to Azure SQL I don't see a solution. Creating a dozen VM instances to install the Gateway is not viable.
