Power BI and SQL Server in Practice: Build Production-Grade Dashboards, KPI Systems, Reporting Pipelines, and Enterprise Analytics Workflows (Production Systems Engineering Series)
Tired of Power BI books that teach charts but never explain how real enterprise analytics systems actually work?
Most books about Power BI dashboards focus only on visuals and basic reports. They rarely explain how Power BI and SQL Server work together inside real organizations to support scalable business intelligence with Power BI, enterprise reporting, KPI systems, and operational analytics workflows.
If you have ever struggled with:
Slow dashboards
Broken relationships
Confusing DAX behavior
Inconsistent KPIs
Poor data models
Refresh failures
Cluttered reports
Scaling Power BI beyond small datasets
...then this book was written for you.
Power BI and SQL Server in Practice takes you beyond isolated dashboard development and teaches you how to think like a professional BI engineer and analytics architect.
Instead of disconnected toy examples, you will build a complete enterprise retail analytics platform step by step while learning how modern SQL Server reporting environments, semantic models, KPI systems, and production reporting systems are designed, optimized, governed, and scaled professionally.
Inside this book, you will learn how to:
Build production-grade Power BI dashboards and KPI systems
Design scalable semantic models and enterprise Power BI data modeling workflows
Connect Power BI and SQL Server using professional reporting architectures
Engineer reusable ETL and transformation pipelines with Power Query
Master DAX for Power BI, analytical calculations, and KPI engineering
