Introducing Semantic Layer Sync with Power BI
The text discusses the integration of Cube Cloud with Microsoft's ecosystem of data and analytics tools, including Azure for hosting, Entra ID for identity management, Fabric for data warehousing, and Power BI for data consumption. It highlights that regardless of how deeply one is invested in the Microsoft ecosystem, Cube Cloud can centralize the management and performance of data analytics. The most impactful integrations are with Fabric and Power BI, enabling seamless work with data within the Microsoft ecosystem. Cube provides support for tools both upstream and downstream of its semantic layer, offering unified metrics definitions and access control. Semantic Layer Sync enables instant importing of PBIT files from Cube Cloud to Power BI without any additional configuration. This feature is available in Cube Cloud on the Enterprise tier, with documentation and a Slack community for further discussion.
