What Is POWER BI ?
Power BI is a business analytics service developed by Microsoft that enables individuals and organizations to visualize data, share insights, and make informed decisions based on their data.
At its core, Power BI helps you:.
- Connect to various data sources (like Excel, databases, cloud services, and more)
- Transform and model data to clean and prepare it for analysis
- Create interactive reports and dashboards with rich visualizations (charts, graphs, maps, etc.)
- Share and collaborate on reports across teams through the Power BI Service (online platform)
- Access insights on-the-go via mobile apps
Power BI is designed to be user-friendly yet powerful, enabling everyone from business users to data professionals to turn raw data into meaningful, actionable insights without extensive programming knowledge. In short: Power BI = Data + Visualization + Insight + Collaboration
