Question POWER BI

Hi Guys,

long time no see.

A little while ago, I was thinking of "power BI" as a solution to the monitoring of my progress DB data, like the manufacture bilan of the day, data of the purchase and sales.

So my question is: Did someone already did an openedge db <-> power Bi exchange of data and how ? Why? and Why not?

Best Regards
 
You can use all sorts of BI tools with OpenEdge databases. Most of them rely on SQL connections, so you'll have to configure a SQL broker for the database, and connect via ODBC. That's all not a problem, but you should be careful that the BI tool doesn't take away resources from the system too much. A lot of people tend to connect their BI and other reporting tools to a replica of the database. OpenEdge Replication Plus is a great solution for this, whilst also providing a disaster recovery solution.
