Next-Generation Architecture

Microsoft Fabric Integration: DirectLake and OneLake Unification

Traditional BI requires duplicating data into separate cubes or importing billions of records overnight. With Microsoft Fabric and Guru Group, Power BI queries Delta-Parquet tables directly in OneLake with DirectLake mode—delivering sub-second performance with zero data movement.

Zero-Copy DirectLake Mode

Power BI reads directly from the OneLake delta tables with no import refresh required, ensuring live data without taxing source systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Essential architectural, licensing, and security answers for IT leaders adopting Microsoft Power BI.

Microsoft Fabric introduces DirectLake mode, allowing Power BI to query Delta Parquet tables stored in OneLake directly with sub-second response times—without needing to import or duplicate data into proprietary cubes. This eliminates lengthy overnight scheduled refreshes, reduces memory consumption, and provides real-time analytics across the entire organization.

Power BI Pro ($10/user/month) allows users to build, publish, and share reports within an organization up to 1 GB dataset size. Premium Per User ($20/user/month) increases dataset limits to 100 GB, unlocks advanced AI features, XMLA endpoints, and 48 daily refreshes. Microsoft Fabric capacity (F-SKUs) licenses the organizational compute, allowing unlimited free viewers without per-user licensing for apps and portals.

Yes! Using Power BI Embedded (App-Owns-Data architecture), Guru Group integrates interactive dashboards directly into your custom web application. External users authenticate through your own app, and reports are served dynamically with Row-Level Security (RLS) so each client or tenant only sees their own authorized data—without requiring individual Microsoft 365 accounts.

Yes. Slow reports are typically caused by inefficient DAX measures, non-star schemas, bidirectional relationship loops, or high-cardinality columns. Our certified architects run DAX Studio and Tabular Editor performance diagnostics, rewrite calculations, apply VertiPaq column encoding optimization, and restructure models to achieve sub-second load times.
