Jens Vestergaard’s T-SQL Tuesday entry involves Power BI feeding from Analysis Services:
My story with this half-baked product (the Dashboard you are about to see), is that I needed some way of tracking performance on a couple of Analysis Services (SSAS) query servers. There are a lot of good posts and talks about how to collect and store performance counters and SSAS logs out there, and I suggest you look into this, this or that, if you need inspiration.
The current data set is about 200K rows, as I am sampling each server every 5th minute.
Both of these are valuable tools in a Microsoft BI environment.
