This step-by-step guide is based on our work with Microsoft customers who want to make the most of the business intelligence (BI) hidden within their IBM Db2 mainframe databases. Written by Bhaskar Bandam of the Azure Global Legacy Engineering Team, this quick guide shows how easy it is to use Power BI Desktop to interact with your IBM Db2 data and build reports with visual analytics. The new Power BI Connector for IBM Db2 creates a real-time link to your data. You can refresh data on demand or on a schedule to ensure that your analyses always reflect the latest data, and then easily share your reports with colleagues.
