Within the last few months, you’ve probably heard about about Power BI for Office 365, the new cloud-centric BI front end tool set from Microsoft. You may have even attended one of our webinars on the topic, while Power BI was still in preview – it has since moved to general availability. 
(If you missed the session, you can view the on demand webinar, Power BI for Office 365: Using SharePoint to Deliver Self-Service BI, at your leisure.)
Power BI is a collection of features and services that provide you with the ability to visualize data, share discoveries, and collaborate more intuitively. It works seamlessly with Excel – simply use Excel to create data models and visualizations, and then, use Power BI to share and extend those insights. More often, users now want self-service access to data of all types, and Power BI delivers on that.
When you take Power BI’s self-service business intelligence and combine it with SQL Server 2014 and Microsoft Azure, you can host your entire BI solution in the cloud, while ensuring greater access to business analytics. And by letting Microsoft manage the infrastructure for you, you can focus on your data and discoveries.
On Wednesday, May 21, 2014, at 1 p.m. CDT, join Andrew Tegethoff, Microsoft BI Architect at Perficient, for a complimentary webinar, Making the Most of Power BI with SQL Server 2014 and Azure. During the session, Andy will show you how to host your analytics and reporting solution in the cloud using Power BI and SQL Server 2014.
In the meantime, if you’d like to learn more about BI in the cloud, Andy wrote a comprehensive guide, The Possibilities of Cloud BI with Microsoft Azure.
