Agenda
Power BI Dataset Lifecycle Management with pbi-tools | Mathias Thierbach
pbi-tools, the open-source CI/CD and source control tool for Power BI, has had many new features added over the last few months that support enterprise-grade lifecycle management of Power BI (Premium) datasets. The session introduces and demonstrates the latest set of capabilities and puts those in context.
The session will cover:
- PBIX source control with pbi-tools (and how it related to PBIP and TMDL)
- Automated deployments of Power BI datasets through CI/CD pipelines
- A git branching model for team collaboration with the corresponding CI/CD triggers
- Flexible and selective dataset refreshes as part of pbi-tools deployments
- Configuring different deployment environments
- Deploying SQL Database artifcats alongside Power BI datasets
All demos and files used during the session are available in a public GitHub repository.
Speakers
Mathias Thierbach – Director of pbi-tools.
About the Group
Whether you have a depth of knowledge in a certain area that you want to share or are looking to branch out and learn new aspects of the Azure stack, this is the group for you.
More than learning, the Azure Analytics User Groups is a great place to find professionals in the industry. For those new to the industry (like students), this user group is the easiest and best way to get a good introduction to Azure.
We will discuss the use and direction of tools such as:
- Azure SQL
- Azure Synapse (formerly Azure SQL DW)
- Azure Analysis Services
- Data Factory
- Azure Databricks
- Azure storage
- Azure DevOps
- Power BI
The discussion is not limited to these products and will change over time.
