Data Modeling Building Blocks
If you’re new to Power BI, you’d be forgiven for seeing it as just a data visualization tool. That initial “click, drag, and drop” introduction to Power BI can be thrilling, but I worry it often gives short shrift to Power BI’s most exciting talents; its ability to pull data from many sources, transform them to meet your needs, and, for a grand finale, efficiently structure and connect data to keep your reporting fast and reliable.

Life of an Intern
