At the AzureCon conference this week, we showcased the integration of Power BI with Azure SQL Data Warehouse, our enterprise-class elastic data warehouse-as-a-service. Additionally, we are excited to share that Azure SQL Data Warehouse is now broadly available, enabling all customers to get started with the service.

Power BI allows you to directly connect to data stored in Azure SQL Data Warehouse, offering simple and dynamic data exploration.

After creating a connection to your data warehouse, queries are generated in real time and sent back to the source as you visualize the data. This removes the need to create and upload a custom data model and offers interactive visualization of your data.

Creating a connection to your data warehouse is easy, either through Power BI or directly in the Azure Portal using the “Open in Power BI” feature.
