This session demonstrates how Power BI can connect to and visualize data stored in Azure Databricks, enabling interactive analysis of large datasets. We’ll provide a 200-level overview of Power BI’s capabilities, then a live demo of creating dashboards using Databricks as the data source. Attendees will learn how to build reports on Delta Lake tables that are optimized for performance and AI. The goal is to show how Databricks’ high-performance engine can be leveraged by business-friendly Power BI tools, bringing big data insights and accessible AI to end-users without complex code.
