Session Outline:
Businesses today need to have the ability to analyze, obtain insight from their data, and act rapidly, leveraging BI to improve operational efficiency, and maintain their competitive advantage.
Working in an agile framework to realize continuous delivery of results helps BI teams bring artifacts to end-users in a continuous, rapid flow; but constantly pushing out new content, exponentially increases the risk of errors. Adding structure to our development and deployment processes, can help mitigate this risk by working in a multi-tiered process architecture.
The question now becomes - how do we realize this with self-service BI tool like Power BI?
Possible frameworks include DTAP (Development, Testing, Acceptance, Production) and ALM (Application Lifecycle Management). These multi-tier developing processes are very common in software testing and deployment. However, in an upcoming industry of self-service IT, these processes are sometimes hard to use.
Power BI, which is mostly positioned and advertised by Microsoft as a self-service data analytics tool, does not have a standard integrated capability to apply a multi-tiered architecture for development and deployment.

Session Format:
