Ready to build and manage your Power BI data models with code instead of endless clicking? In this hands-on session, you'll get to know Semantic Link – the connection between your Power BI semantic model and programmable workflows in notebooks. We’ll start with the basics: what is Semantic Link, and why might you choose it over something like Power Query? Then we’ll dive straight into practice. You’ll learn how to: load data from source systems, read and explore your semantic model, and add new measures, tables, or relationships – all through code. Together, we’ll build a complete data model from A to Z using Semantic Link. You’ll see how to structure and automate your modeling process with notebooks, including best practices and common pitfalls. This session is perfect for BI professionals, data engineers, and anyone looking to model more efficiently within Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, or Azure Notebooks. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to use Semantic Link to work faster, smarter, and at scale.

This session focuses on data modeling with a strong emphasis on real-world scenarios. A solid foundation is assumed: familiarity with the star schema, the importance of correct data types, and the core principles of a well-designed Power BI data model.

Ben je klaar om dieper in datamodellering te duiken en je Power BI-vaardigheden naar een hoger niveau te tillen? Deze eendaagse workshop is precies wat je zoekt.

Wil je de prestaties van je Power BI-rapporten naar een hoger niveau tillen? Uit ervaring blijkt dat de meeste performanceproblemen eenvoudig kunnen worden opgelost door slimme aanpassingen in het datamodel.

De VertiPaq-engine is het kloppend hart van Power BI, maar veel professionals onderschatten hoeveel invloed hun datamodel heeft op compressie, geheugengebruik en queryperformance. In deze sessie duiken we diep onder de motorkap van VertiPaq en ontdek je hoe slimme – vaak kleine – aanpassingen in je datamodel kunnen…

Do you want to enhance the performance of your dashboard? Experience shows that most performance issues in Power BI can be addressed with a few simple adjustments to the data model. Therefore, this session will address the following questions: - What constitutes a strong foundation for a data model? - What are the advantages and disadvantages of different data models? - How can you manipulate data to generate the right insights? A robust data model can resolve many issues effortlessly, including: - Even with limited expertise, you can boost performance with a few tips, resulting in faster loading times for your reports. - Utilizing the appropriate data model makes it easier to craft DAX formulas, reducing complexity in the process. By the end of this session, you'll have a clear understanding of what factors to consider. You can then apply this knowledge directly to your daily tasks.
