Types of gateways

There are two different types of gateways, each for a different scenario:

  • On-premises data gateway allows multiple users to connect to multiple on-premises data sources. You can use an on-premises data gateway with all supported services, with a single gateway installation. This gateway is well-suited to complex scenarios with multiple people accessing multiple data sources.

  • On-premises data gateway (personal mode) allows one user to connect to sources, and can’t be shared with others. An on-premises data gateway (personal mode) can be used only with Power BI. This gateway is well-suited to scenarios where you’re the only person who creates reports, and you don't need to share any data sources with others.

There are four main steps for using a gateway.

 

Download and install the gateway on a local computer.

Configure the gateway based on your firewall and other network requirements.

           → Add gateway admins who can also manage and administer other networks

          → Use the gateway to refresh an on-premises data source.

Troubleshoot the gateway in case of errors.

Difference Between Calculated Column And Measure

Power BI  Difference Between Calculated Column And Measure  Calculated Column / Measure : Calculated Column  :  A calculated column is an extension of a table using a DAX formula that is evaluated for each row. If you are accustomed to using Excel, you will remember that in Excel you often need to copy a formula for each cell of a new column, unless you format your range as a table. This results in each cell potentially having a different formula because of different cell references. When you write a calculated column formula, it is automatically applied to the whole table and evaluated individually for each row. Note: The Total summation value does not give correct values in calculated columns  Example :  Cal is Table name caluculated_Column = cal[cost]/cal[sales] caluculatedMeasure = SUM(cal[cost])/SUM(cal[sales]) Here Total sales/ Total Cost value gives 0.90 in measure 21/19 = 0.90 Where as in calculated column gives 5.00 wrong results sumx_Measure = SUM...
