Power BI is the collective name for an assortment of cloud-based apps and services that help organisations collate, manage, and analyse data from a variety of sources, through a user-friendly interface.
Microsoft Power BI
Power BI connects to a range of data sources, from basic Excel spreadsheets to databases, and both cloud-based and on-premise apps.
Power BI is something of an umbrella term and can refer to either a Windows desktop application called Power BI Desktop, an online SaaS (Software as a Service) service called Power BI Service, or mobile Power BI apps available on Windows phones and tablets, as well as for iOS and Android devices.
Power BI is built on the foundation of Microsoft Excel, and as such, the learning curve from Excel to Power BI is not that steep.
Why Power BI

- Build relational models to blend data from multiple sources

- Visualise data with interactive reports and dashboards
