Session Details:
Power BI is incredibly powerful at distributing and sharing data insights, through visualizations, across an entire organization. The democratization of Business Intelligence that Power BI brought with it is unparalleled. But Power BI on its own has its limitations and will often fall short, on its own, when designing end-to-end analytic platforms for enterprises. That's where Synapse comes into the picture-for organizations, small and large, their current Power BI deployment can be supercharged with the capabilities of Azure Synapse.
In this session we will cover how to architect an end-to-end enterpise analytics platform so that we utilize the best of both worlds. The extremely versatile ETL capabilities of Synapse and the powerful data modelling in Power BI.
After this session you will leave with a much better understanding of how Azure Synapse Analytics can supercharge your Power BI.
Speaker Bio:
Mathias Halkjær Petersen is a self-proclaimed data fanatic obsessed with helping organizational leaders make better decisions through expanding and utilizing their data ecosystem.
With a background in Product Development and Innovation, Mathias offers a unique perspective to analytics and will often babble on about data as products, data prototypes, and the importance of user research. He often finds himself taking several steps back to focus on the bigger picture, and with his slightly rebellious attitude, he will much rather try to break the rules, norms, and industry standards than follow them blindly.
He has years of experience working with data in high-tech, high-growth companies have taught him a thing or two about working with and designing data platforms and data models for fast-paced analytics with quick turn-around from problems or user needs to insights.
