Power BI Wednesday Lunch 'n' Learn
Synopsis: This is a "Lunch n Learn" series called Power BI Wednesday, each Wednesday we will hold a short lunchtime review and discussion on a particular topic. POWER BI ADOPTION SERIES The goal of this series of articles is to provide a roadmap. The roadmap presents a series of strategic and tactical considerations and action items that directly lead to successful Power BI adoption, and help build a data culture in your organization. Advancing adoption and cultivating a data culture is about more than implementing technology features. Technology can assist an organization in making the greatest impact, but a healthy data culture involves a lot of considerations across the spectrum of people, processes, and technology.

Join us at the Microsoft Office in Ottawa for a user group meetup exploring how Microsoft Fabric and Databricks can work together to deliver modern, scalable data architectures. This session will dive into real-world architecture patterns that bring these two platforms into playโcovering where each excels, how to integrate them effectively, and strategies for creating a unified data foundation that drives analytics, AI, and business insights. What you will gain: -A clear understanding of when to leverage Fabric vs. Databricks -Practical examples of hybrid architecture patterns in enterprise scenarios -Insights into governance, performance, and cost considerations when combining both tools -Networking opportunities with peers tackling similar challenges in data modernization Who should attend: Data engineers, architects, BI developers, AI/ML practitioners, and technology leaders looking to deepen their understanding of Microsoft Fabric and Databricks. Seats are limited, so secure your spot early, and come hungry for both data insights and pizza. Hosted by Revolution Data Platforms
NYC Fabric Community โ Featured Speaker: Joey DโAntoni | Architecture Framework
Joey D'Antoni: Building the Fabric Well-Architected Framework What is the best way to architect Microsoft Fabric workspaces? How should your network and security models be designed for scale and governance? In this session, youโll explore best practices across Microsoft Fabric, including naming standards, deployment strategies, capacity management, security, and overall platform governance. Key topics include: Best practices for deployment and management of Fabric environments Implementing standards, controls, and governance models Designing enterprise-ready architecture for Microsoft Fabric This session is ideal for anyone looking to build a scalable, secure, and well-architected Fabric implementation. It will also be valuable for those interested in strengthening best practices around standardization, performance, and long-term operational stability, as well as experienced architects from other data platforms exploring Microsoft Fabric.
IF/SWITCH measure performance
Hi, I have a general question about the best way to write if/switch measures. Is any of the following examples (1 and 2) more efficient than the other? 1) if_measure = IF(condition_measure = value1, [measure1], [measure2]) switch_measure = SWITCH(condition_measure, value1, [measure1], value2, [measure2], [measure3]) 2) if_measure = IF(condition_measure = value1, DAX code for measure 1, DAX code for measure 2) switch_measure = SWITCH(condition_measure, value1, DAX code for measure 1, value2, DAX code for measure 2, DAX code for measure 3) Thanks!Keeping corresponding tier data sources aligned with 3-tier development environments on Report Svr
We have a 3-tier Power BI RS environment (Dev/Test/Prod) and corresponding SQL database environments with an organizational restriction that apps in 1 level can only access data sources in the same level. For example, the Prod app tier can only access ProdSvr\Sales, Test app tier accesses TestSvr\Sales and so on. PBI developers can only publish into the Dev environment and the DBA team controls the promotion process through Test and Prod. Is there anyway to abstract the actual data source identifier and include a parameter so the PBIX doesn't have to be manually changed to match the data source with the corresponding environment? Or is there another approach to support this process?
