Data Platform Down Under — 01/15/2024

Sydney, Australia

Fragmented data adds unnecessary cost and complexity within an organization! Within the Power BI platform these are called (data silos), where the ecosystem has nearly as many unique datasets as they do reports. This puts a burden on the developers to maintain these datasets, and the servers when the datasets refresh. It can even cause discrepancies in the logic between datasets resulting in different numbers! Thankfully this can be solved by leveraging the shared datasets feature in Power BI.
