power bi or azure machine learning

[Anonymous]

Hi, is there any possibility to develop, train and deploy Machine Learning models using power BI instead of buying Azure machine learning? If not, is that possible to use Azure Machine Learning for visualisation so power bi is not required?

HI @Anonymous,

Power bi is a data visualization tool, I don't think it is possible to directly do training and deploy machine learning models on power bi desktop side. I think you need to use it to get data from the processed machine learning model and design reports based on analytics records.

For data visualization tools, you can take a look at the following document about Azure Data Explorer:

Hi @Anonymous 

You can use both Python and R in Power BI, so yes you can to some degree.
