Implementing and managing power bi for the business

DESCRIPTION

Slide deck from the free session on PowerBI I have given at numerous SQLSaturday and user group events. You would have to attend to get the full picture, but this should give you an idea! There is cool functionality with PowerQuery, Powerpivot, PowerView and PowerMap, and plenty of sessions on how to use it. But how do you hook it all together so you can take advantage of both public data and on-prem data for greater data insights.
