MANAGER POWER BI ENGINEERING. >> GOOD MORNING, IT IS SUCH A PLEASURE TO HAVE YOU JOINING US. WE'RE GOING TO SPEND THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME DOING SOME REALLY COOL DEMOS ON SOME CAPABILITIES SHIPPING TODAY AND THINGS THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE VERY, VERY SOON. JIM TALKED ABOUT THE FEEDBACK DATA GROUP AND HOW DATA IS COMING FROM EVERYWHERE, FROM YOUR DEVICES, AND ALL OF THIS DATA IS ABOUT THE SIGNALS THAT REALLY MATTER TO YOU, YOUR PRODUCTS, YOUR CUSTOMERS, YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR OPERATIONS. OUR JOB AT POWER BI IS AT THE VERY CENTER OF IT ALL, TO BE ABLE TO MAKE SENSE OF THE DATA AND HAVE EVERYBODY IN YOUR ORGANIZATION MAKE BETTER DECISIONS BASED ON DATA. WHEN I TALK TO CUSTOMERS, THE THING THAT GETS MOST EXCITED ABOUT RBI IS IT HELPS THEM DRIVE A DATA CULTURE. EVERY EMPLOYEE IS MAKING BETTER DECISIONS BASED ON DATA AND WHERE FACTS ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN OPINIONS, AND IT IS LESS ABOUT WHO YOU KNOW. SO THIS IS PROVIDING AMAZING CAPABILITIES AND AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE BEEN SHIPPING A NEW RELEASE OF POWER BI DESKTOP EVERY SINGLE MONTH FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> AND NOT ONLY THAT, WE MAKE SURE THE PRODUCT IS COMPLETE AND FREE AND THE REASON WE DO THAT IS WE WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE CAN GET TO POWER BI AND SEE WHAT IT CAN DO FOR THEM. NOT ONLY THAT, WE ALSO BRING SOME AMAZING MOBILE EXPERIENCES. IT IS WIDELY USED, A HIGHLY RATED PRODUCT, GRADED 4. 7 AT THE I. R. S. STORE AS WELL AS THE TKPWAO *UG STORE AND WHAT IS REALLY INTERESTING IS IF YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBERS OF REVIEWS FOR POWER BI MOBIL, WE HAVE 15 MORE REVIEWS THAN ALL OF THE OTHER PLAYERS COMBINED SO IT IS SOMETHING THAT CUSTOMERS LOVE AND WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AND ALL OF THIS IS NOT JUST BECAUSE WE AT RIMMED CAME -- REDMOND CAME UP WITH IDEAS, A QUARTER OF MILLION OF YOU SUBMITTED A NEW IDEA ON POWER BI. COM OR VOTED FOR ONE AND TOGETHER YOU TAME UP WITH 19, 444 IDEAS THAT YOU GUYS. US TO BUILD INTO POWER BI AND, BOY, HAVE WE BEEN HARD AT WORK. SO IF YOU LOOK AT ALL THE CAPABILITY THAT WE SHIPPED IN THE SECOND HALF OF LAST YEAR IT, COMPLETELY FILLS THE SLIDE AND I THINK IT RUNS OVER A LITTLE BIT. WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT WE SHIPPED THIS YEAR, WE HAVE BEEN HARD AT WORK SHIPPING THE CAPABILITIES THAT OUR CUSTOMERS REALLY CARE ABOUT. AND WHAT YOU SEE HERE IS THE MONTHLY USAGE CURVE FOR POWER BI SINCE THE DAY WE STARTED AND AS YOU CAN SEE, POWER BI IS ON A TEAR. EVEN THE SMALL DIPS YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY IS THE USAGE OF POWER BI IN THE HOLIDAY SEASON. MOST OF THE POWER BI USERS USE POWER BI THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS SO VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AND WHAT IS INTERESTING, POWER BI, CUSTOMERS BRING OVER 20PEDABYTES OF DATA TO POWER BI EVERY MONTH, WE RUN OVER A MILLION DASHBOARDS AND PROCESS MORE THAN 12 MILLION PER HOUR AND WHAT IS REALLY INTERESTING IS IF YOU LOOK AT THE OVERALL USAGE, IT IS GROWING VERY QUICKLY BUT THE USAGE OVER LARGE ENTERPRISE DEPLOYMENTS IS GROWING FASTER. SO WE SEE 0 PERCENT GROWTH OVER THE LAST 12 MONTHS AND AS COMPANIES, MANY OF THOSE COMPANIES ARE HERE TODAY AT MBAS SO YOU CAN ATTEND THE CUSTOMER STORIES AND HEAR FROM BRITISH PETROLEUM WHERE THEY ARE USING POWER BI TO ENABLE POWER USERS AND INTEGRATING APPS SO THAT ANALYSTS CAN PROVIDE INSIGHTS ALONG WITH THE POWER DASH BOARDS. YOU CAN HEAR FROM MERCK WHO ARE USING AZURE MACHINE LEARNING TO GET AT THE DATA SOLUTION. AND USING POWER BI TO HELP US OPTIMIZE THE SUPPLY CHAIN AND USING MANY AI CAPABILITIES. WE HAVE 11 COMPANIES HERE THAT SOUND -- JOINED US AT MBAS AND WHAT IS INTERESTING IS THEY DEMONSTRATE THE SOLUTIONS WE'RE USING SO YOU CAN SEE HOW THE CUSTOMERS USE POWER BI IN REAL LIFE. OVERALL, POWER BI USAGE IS REALLY STRONG. PRETTY MUCH IN EVERY JOB IN THE INDUSTRY, YOU WILL SEE POWER BI CUSTOMERS AND WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT OVER 5 PERCENT OF THE FORTUNE500 TODAY USE POWER BI AND THAT IS MASSIVE FOR A THREE-YEAR-OLD PRODUCT. VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. IT IS AVAILABLE IN 44 LANGUAGES, 3 DATA CENTERS AROUND THE WORLD AND THREE NATIONAL CLOUDS. THIS MEANS PRETTY MUCH IN ANY GEOGRAPHY, YOU CAN HAVE DATA CLOSE TO YOU FOR THE BEST PERFORMANCE AND COMPLIANCE. WE ALSO INVESTED DEEPLY IN CERTIFICATION SO EVERY CERTIFICATION THAT MATTERS IN YOU IS SOMETHING THAT WE ARE VESTED IN DEEPLY. ALL OF THIS IS A RESULT OF CLEAR MARKET LEADERSHIP BOTH IN TERMS OF ABILITY TO EXECUTE AND COMPLETE UTILIZATION. SO THIS CAME OUT A FEW MONTHS AGO, VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE RECOGNITION IN THE INDUSTRY. AND ALL OF THIS IS REALLY POSSIBLE BECAUSE EVERYBODY IN THE COMMUNITY LEANED IN AND THESE ARE JUST SOME PICTURES OF THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND I AM SURE YOU RECOGNIZE SOME OF THEM, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR THE FEEDBACK AND MAKING POWER BI WHAT IT IS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. [APPLAUSE] >> SO A CTO AND TECHNICAL FELLOW WILL TALK TO YOU ABOUT WHERE WE ARE GOING AND SHOW YOU SOME DEMOS. AMIR? >> THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> THIS IS THE BEST PART OF THE YEAR FOR ME BECAUSE WE ARE NOT JUST GOING TO TALK ABOUT WHAT WE DID, WE WILL LOOK FORWARD AND TUNE IN TO WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON, WHAT IS IN THE PLANS, SOME OF THE THINGS THAT -- [INDISCERNIBLE] BUT YOU CAN GET THE FULL PICTURE OF WHERE POWER BI IS HEADING. IT IS A FUN SESSION. IN FACT, THERE IS ANOTHER CONFERENCE GOING ON IN LOS ANGELES, A GAMING CONFERENCE, SO WHILE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FUN, WE'RE GOING TO DEMO THEM AND EVERYTHING WILL BE ABOUT VIDEO GAMES. IN THE AUDIENCE A LOT OF FAMILIAR FACES. SOME WHO HAVE BEEN WITH US TWO DECADES AND MORE, SQL SERVICE, SOME OF YOU BORN THAT TIME, JENNY, THE ONLY POWER BI DECIDER. THIS IS HOW IT LOOKED LIKE IN PREVIEW. JUST LOOKS SO AWKWARD RIGHT NOW BUT THAT IS WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE AND WE MADE A STATEMENT. WE CAME IN WITH THE BLACK PANES ON THE SIDE AND A LOT OF YOU WERE SAYING OH, THAT IS INTERESTING, GOT THE USAGE, THAT IS THE VIEW OF POWER BI AS WE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING IT FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS BUT TODAY, THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY AND WE ARE GOING TO REFRESH THE WHOLE LOOK AND FEEL OF THE POWER BI DESKTOP. WE'RE ANNOUNCING THIS NEW LOOK AND THIS NEW LOOK, YES -- [APPLAUSE] >> YES, THIS NEW LOOK IS BRIGHT, AIRY, EVERYTHING FEELS IN THE RIGHT PLACE AND IT IS MORE THAN JUST SKIN DEEP. IT IS NOT JUST THE COLORS. YES, OBVIOUSLY THE COLORS ARE CHANGING. ANOTHER WILL COME LATER TO SHOW US ALL OF THE CAPABILITIES TO HELPS MAKE POWER BI A TRUE MEMBER OF THE OFFICE FAMILY. COLORS IS ONE THING BUT THE OTHER BEHAVIORS AS WELL SO WAIT FOR THAT BECAUSE WE HAVE ANOTHER EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE LOOK AND FEEL, IT IS NOT JUST THE DESKTOP CHANGES BUT WE ANNOUNCED THE SERVICE IS CHANGING. SO FOR THAT, YEAH, I WANT TO SHOW YOU, THE SERVICE IS CHANGING AND IT WILL BE PRETTY, PRETTY REMARKABLE. WE'RE BRINGING THE POWER TO THE CONTENT TO THE FULL SCREEN, BROUGHT BY YOU TO POWER BI AND TO SHOW YOU WHAT THIS WILL LOOK LIKE AND WALK US THROUGH, I WANT TO HAVE SONIA JOIN US. HERE WE GO. [APPLAUSE] >> TODAY I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE BUILDING AND POWER BI TO HELP END USERS BE MORE PRODUCTIVE. LET'S START WITH THE LOOK. THIS IS THE DESIGN WHERE ALL THE FOCUS IS ON THE REPORT CONTENT. YOU CAN SEE THE CONTENT HAS -- [INDISCERNIBLE] , TOP OF LINE, NORMAL GRAY AREA AREN'T THE EDGES TO GIVE IT A SMOOTH FINISH. YOU CAN CRYSTALLIZE THIS, USING APP P, AS YOU CAN SEE IN DIFFERENT EXAMPLES, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO GO WILD AND TRUE IT LIFE AND LOOK HOW INTEGRATED THESE ELEMENT ARE CREATING A. [INDISCERNIBLE] FOR YOUR USER AND ALL OF IT SINGLE LINE, OF COURSE. >> AND YOU REALLY OWN THE FULL REAL ESTATE. THE PAGES JUST SHINE. >> EXACTLY. AND WHAT WE USE WITH METADATA -- [APPLAUSE] >> THANK YOU. SIMPLIFY NAVIGATION FOR END USERS. WE SWITCH THE NAVIGATION TO A VERTICAL NAVIGATION TO MAKE PAGES MORE PROMINENT AND EASY TO SWITCH BETWEEN. YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE THIS, . [INDISCERNIBLE] HERE A GROUP IN THE PERFORMANCE SECTION, I HAVE A SECTION HERE THAT HAS ALL CONTENT RELATED TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. AND A GAME WATCH REPORT THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS TO BE A PAGINATED REPORT. [LAUGHTER] >> SO YOU CAN SEE HOW EFFICIENT THIS CAN BE FOR END USERS TO FIND ALL INFORMATION IN JUST A FEW CLICKS AND IT DOESN'T ALL HAVE TO BE POWER BI CONTENT. YOU CAN CAN EXCEL CONDITION TENT IN YOUR A. P. HERE I HAVE ALL THE SLIDES HERE. YOU CAN HAVE A WORD DOCUMENT WITH INFORMATION TO HELP USERS ONBOARD WITH THE APP OR A VIDEO THAT ALSO CAN HAVE HANDS-ON TRAINING INFORMATION AND EVEN THE VIDEO OPENS WITH MBI. >> WHAT I LOVE ABOUT IT IS EVERY PIECE OF CONTENT IS AVAILABLE ON ONE PANE SURFACE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO OPEN THE REPORT AND GET OUT OF THE REPORT TO MOVE TO SOME OTHER PIECE, IT IS ALL THERE IN THE NAVIGATION PANE, ONE CLICK AWAY. >> EXACTLY AND WHAT MAKES IT SO PRODUCTIVE TO HAVE ALL OF THIS INFORMATION IN ONE PLACE AND LASTLY, YOU CAN -- [INDISCERNIBLE] SO YOUR END USERS CAN TELL YOU WHAT IS WORKING WELL AND WHAT COULD BE BETTER SO YOU HAVE THE FEEDBACK FROM THESE USERS AND YOU CAN SEE HOW YOU CAN USE THAT AS A POWER BI PORTAL IN YOUR ORGANIZATION. AS THE APP GROWS, USERS HAVE MORE ACCESS TO CONTENT, IT BECOMES VERY IMPORTANT THEY GET TO THAT CONTENT QUICKLY. YOU HAVE ALL YOUR KEY MET THOUGHTS, CONTENTS YOU FREQUENTLY ACCESS, CONTENTS IN WORK SPACES AND YOU CAN ACCESS FROM HOME. >> CAN YOU GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN? >> YES. SO THIS LOOKS VERY DIFFERENT. STILL, THIS ALLOWS YOU A CORPORATE PLAN. FROM HERE YOU CAN SEE THE BEAUTIFUL LOGO AND COLOR AND INFUSING THIS IN POWER BI. >> IT IS COMING TO POWER BI VERY SOON. >> YES, VERY EXCITING. [APPLAUSE] >> LET'S LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE DOING TO IMPROVE THE WAY USERS INTERACT WITH DATA. OFTEN END USERS HAVE QUESTIONS BUT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT WITH THE ANSWERS STRAIGHTFORWARD TO GET TO THIS. THIS LETS THE END USERS MODIFY THE VISUAL. HERE, OVER TIME, I CAN GO AND SAY CHANGE THE TOP AND I SEE ALL THE DIFFERENT VISIONS LAID OUT HERE, PIE CHART, DOUGHNUT CHART, ALL OF THE FLICKS TO CHANGE THE CHART. >> AND YOU ARE NOT A REPORT AUTHOR IN THIS ROLE, YOU ARE A CONSUMER? >> YES. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO BUILD REPORTS. I DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO HELP ME OUT. I PROBABLY JUST HAVE ACCESS TO THE REPORT AND I AM ABLE TO DO ALL OF THIS JUST IN A FEW CLICKS. AND HERE I CAN ALSO CHANGE THE ACCESS. I CAN REPLACE THIS, OPEN THE MODEL WHERE I AM GETTING ALL OF THE DIMENSIONS AVAILABLE SO SAY I WANT TO CHANGE IT HERE, IT SHOWS THE DIMENSION. AND YOU MAY TO WANT CHANGE THE MEASURES AND FROM SOME TO OTHER AND SO ON AND YOU CAN SEE ALL THE DIFFERENT WAYS THAT END USERS CAN MODIFY THIS, KEEP THE DATA AND COME BACK NEXT TIME TO GET THE LATEST DATA ON YOUR REPORT SO MY USERS, ANSWER MORE BUSINESS QUESTIONS HERE AND ALL ON THEIR OWN. >> SO EVERY CONSUMER CAN GO AND CHANGE THE VISUALS, CUSTOMIZE THEM, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE TO SAVE IT, RIGHT? >> NO, NOT AT ALL. THEY CAN SAVE IT IF THEY WANT BUT YOU CAN GO BACK TO IT WITH ONE CLICK. END USERS NOW HAVE ALL THE CAPABILITIES HOWEVER THERE IS ALWAYS A SITUATION WHERE THEY WANT TO INTERACT WITH OTHERS AND GET CONTEXT FROM THE DATA. I SEE HERE ON THE REPORT, THE QUESTION IS ASKING ABOUT OTHER SALES, I CAN SEE EXACTLY WHAT THE VIEWER IS LOOKING AT AND THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT IS ACTUALLY SPECIFICALLY ASKING FOR THE EXCEL ONE PLATFORM. I RESPOND TO THIS AND YOU CAN PUSH CERTIFICATION ON YOUR MOBILE BUT HOLD ON. YOU CAN GET THE END USER TO -- [INDISCERNIBLE] YOU WANT TO SHOW THEM HOW? >> SURE, WHAT YOU HAVE HERE, OPEN GAMING ANALYSIS. >> YOU CAN OPEN TWICE. >> OKAY, OPEN GAMING ANALYSIS. THAT WORKED. >> YES. >> AND IT TAKES ME DIRECTLY TO REPORTS. I CAN SEE HERE THE COMMENTS ON THE BOTTOM AND THE COMMENT YOU PROVIDED. >> YES. >> THAT IS AWESOME, WE CAN JUST CLOSE THE LOOP, THANK YOU SO MUCH, SONIA. >> THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> YOU KNOW THE JOURNEY WE WENT THROUGH IS NOT JUST A JOURNEY OF THE LOOK AND FEEL, IT IS ALSO A JOURNEY FOR WHAT THE PRODUCT DOES. WHEN YOU LAUNCH A PRODUCT IN 2015, IT IS ALL ABOUT CELL SERVICE EXPIRATION. THAT IS WHAT THE PRODUCT IS ALL ABOUT. YOU HAVE DATA TO PUBLISH REPORTS, THAT WAS IT. YOU LOOK AT POWER BI FOUR YEARS LATER, IT IS A COMPLETE, COMPREHENSIVE ENTERPRISE BI PLATFORM, UNIFYING SENSORS, CENTRAL BI PROVIDING A WHOLE SENSE OF FUNCTIONALITY WITH PAGINATED REPORTS, DATA SET, THE WHOLE DATA PREPARATION, LARGE DATA WITH POWER BI DATA FLOWS, AI, EI, ELM, THE WHOLE WORKS. THIS IS PERHAPS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE BI PLATFORM AND TODAY WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THREE IN INNOVATIONS AROUND ENTERPRISE BI AND THEY WILL BE IN THOSE THREE BOXES SO WE WILL START WITH THE BOTTOM ONE. WE'RE ANNOUNCING THAT IN POWER BI DATA FLOWS IN PREMIUM, WE'RE ANNOUNCING A NEW HIGH SCALE DATA FLOW ENGINE. THAT NEW ENGINE IS PROVIDING ABOUT UP TO 20 TIMES THE PERFORMANCE OF THE OLD ENGINE. [APPLAUSE] >> YEAH, IT IS PRETTY REMARKABLE. THERE IS A SESSION AROUND THE ARCHITECTURE A LITTLE LATER TODAY IN WHICH CHRIS WILL GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE ARCHITECTURE AND YOU CAN GO, VERY EXCITING. AND AFTER SIX MONTHS OF HAVING IT IN PREVIEW, PAGINATED REPORTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO ALL ON PREMIUM -- [APPLAUSE] >> AND ANOTHER ONE FEATURE YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR SUCH A LONG TIME, SHARED AND CERTIFIED DATA SETS ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN PREVIEW AND TO SHOW US THIS ENTERPRISE FEATURES, I AM GOING TO ASK THE ONE, THE LEGEND, CHRISTIAN WADE TO JOIN ME ON STAGE. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. HELLO, EVERYONE, I AM SO HAPPY TO SHOW YOU WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON FOR ENTERPRISE BI. TODAY IS THE BIG DAY WHEN PAGINATED REPORTS HIT GENERAL AVAILABILITY. HIGHLY CUSTOMIZED, BEAUTIFUL, FULL PAGINATION WHERE I CAN EXPORT, I HAVE PRINTING, CAN SUBSCRIBE TO GET A COPY IN MY IN-BOX, ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. AND FURTHER, WHAT WE USE TO AUTHOR THE REPORTS NOW SUPPORTS OPENING AND SAVING PAGINATED REPORTS DIRECTLY FROM THE POWER BI SERVICE. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. THERE ARE SO MANY ORGANIZATIONS THAT DEPEND ON POWER BI SUPPORTS ON THE PREMISES -- [INDISCERNIBLE] FOR THE SERVICE. SO I WILL SWITCH OVER AND TALK ABOUT DATA SETS. SAY I AM A PROFESSIONAL, I PUT MY LOVE AND DEDICATION INTO BUILDING THESE DATA SETS AND THEY ARE RICH MODELS I WANT TO USE THROUGHOUT MY ORGANIZATION. HOW CAN I PROMOTE THEM? TODAY I ANNOUNCE SHARED DATA SETS. LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. I AM GOING TO COME INTO THE SETTINGS, DOWN TO THE ENDORSEMENT SECTION AND THIS STATES PROMOTED. PROMOTED MEANS THAT I AM PUTTING MY REPUTATION BEHIND THIS DATA SET, I HAVE TESTED IT, IT IS READY FOR GENERAL CONSUMPTION. BUT YOU WILL NOTICE THERE IS ANOTHER OPTION HERE WHICH I DON'T HAVE PERMISSION TO SET. THIS IS CERTIFIED AND TO GET IT CERTIFIED, I NEED TO GO THROUGH THE DATA GOVERNANCE PROCESS FROM THE ORGANIZATION TO GET IT CERTIFIED AS THE SINGLE TRUTH OF THE ORGANIZATION. SO BEING PUBLISHED BY I. T., YOU KNOW, THEY ARE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF THE COMPANY, THE OFFICIAL SALES RECORD OF THE COMPANY, THERE IS NO ARGUMENT ABOUT IT, THESE ARE THE TRUE WONDERS OF THE -- >> ABSOLUTELY, THE TRUE CORPORATE METRICS THAT DRIVE THE BUSINESS. SO WE COME BACK TO THE DATA SET, GRANT PER MISSIONS IT MAKE SURE THE RIGHT PEOPLE HAVE ACCESS TO THE DATA SETS. SO NOW I WILL SHOW YOU THE CONSUMPTION EXPERIENCE FOR THE ANALYST. I AM SWITCHING OVER TO MY NEW DESKTOP WHICH I WILL TALK ABOUT LATER -- >> IT IS BEAUTIFUL. >> IT IS BEAUTIFUL AND I AM STILL STUNNED EVERY TIME I SEE IT BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT IT EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. [LAUGHTER] >> SO HERE I WILL GET DATA FROM DATA SETS AND I AM PRESENTED WITH A LIST OF ALL THE DATA SETS THAT I HAVE ACCESS TO THROUGHOUT THE ORGANIZATION. THERE LITERALLY COULD BE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DATA SETS HERE AND WE NOW THAT POWER BI GROWS VIRALLY. SO WE PUT THE CERTIFIED AND PROMOTED SETS RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE LIST MAKING IT EASY TO FIND. >> SO NOBODY HAS ANY EX EXECUTION NOT TO FIND THE BEST DATA BECAUSE THEY ARE ALWAYS ON THE TOP -- >> EXACTLY. >> AND EASILY DISCOVERABLE. >> EXACTLY. SO WE WILL PULL FROM THE ONE WE JUST PROMOTED AND CREATE A REPORT IN RECORD TIME USING COPY-PASTE IN DESKTOP, THERE WE GO AND WHILE THE REPORT IS LOADING, I AM GOING TO GO AHEAD AND GET READY TO PUBLISH THIS TO THE POWER BI SERVICE. SO HERE IS THE KEY. I AM GOING TO PUBLISH THIS TO A DIFFERENT WORK SPACE FROM THE ONE IN WHICH THE DATA SET RESIDES. BECAUSE I HAVE SHARED DATA SETS, I CAN ABSOLUTELY DO THAT. >> THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT. YOU CAN HAVE THE REPORTS MANAGED BY PROFESSIONALS IN ONE WORK SPACE AND THEN SHARED WITH MANY AUTHORS USING OTHER WORK SETS THROUGHOUT THE COMPANY. >> EXACTLY. >> VERY NICE. [APPLAUSE] >> SO I AM GOING TO GO AHEAD AND PICK THIS ONE, I HAVE IT LOADED AHEAD OF TIME. SO I HAVE MY BEAUTIFUL REPORT. I AM VERY PROUD OF THIS. AND I WANT TO GO AHEAD AND PIN THIS TO THE DASHBOARD. SO NOW I HAVE GOT AN EXECUTIVE DASHBOARD THAT GETS DATA FROM A VARIETY OF REPORTS AND DIFFERENT DATA SETS AND DIFFERENT WORK SPACES. NATURALLY, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS DATA IS COMING FROM TRUSTED SOURCES, RIGHT? WELL, WE THOUGHT OF THAT ONE TOO. SO I AM GOING TO COME OVER TO THE NEW LINEAGE VIEW WHICH WILL BE COMING SOON, WHICH SHOWS US ALL OF THE INTERDEPENDENCIES BETWEEN THE POWER BI ARTIFACTS AND THE POWER BI WORK SPACE. THAT IS HOW WE ROLL. [APPLAUSE] >> NOW, YOU CAN SEE RIGHT HERE WE ARE GETTING DATA FROM THE CERTIFIED DATA SET IN A CERTIFIED WORK SPACE, NO PROBLEM, CLICKIE-CLICKIE, THERE WE GO AND YOU WILL SEE THE OTHER VIEW IN THE OTHER WORK SPACE. HERE WE GO. SO HERE IS THE DATA SET AND YOU CAN SEE EXACTLY WHICH DATA FLOW IT IS GETTING DATA FROM AND WHICH DATA SOURCES. SO YOU CAN SEE HOW IT HAS MOVED THROUGH THE DATA SOURCE THROUGH DATA FLOWS, THROUGH DATA SETS, THROUGH DASHBOARD, ACROSS WORK SPACES, A COMPLETE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WE'RE BUILDING HERE INTO A 30 VIEW DATA SOURCE ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO DASHBOARD WORK SPACES. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. NOW, FOLLOWING THE SPIRIT OF SHARED DATA SETS, WHAT IF I WANT TO CONSUME DATA FROM POWER BI FROM A DIFFERENT SOURCE? WELL, THAT IS FINE, TOO. WE RECENTLY ANNOUNCED OPEN PLATFORM CONNECTIVITY USING THE XML END POINT WHERE WE CAN SIMPLY COPY THE WORK SPACE URL AND CONNECT TO IT USING A VARIETY OF ANALYSIS CLIENT TOOLS. PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE ON THE PLANET SUPPORTS DATA SETS FOR DATA VISUALIZATION AS WELL AS MANAGEMENT TOOLS. SO HERE WE HAVE SQL SERVER MANAGEMENT STUDIO WHICH IS THE TRADITIONAL MANAGEMENT FOR ANALYSIS SERVICES AND YOU CAN SEE HERE THAT I AM CONNECTED TO THAT WEB SPACE URL AND YOU CAN SEE THE SAME DATA SETS AS THOUGH THEY WERE ACCESSED MODELS, ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. SO I WOULD LIKE TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING ABOUT OUR GAME DATA REVENUE DATA SET THAT WE CREATED. SO I WILL SHOW YOU SOME OVERVIEWS SO YOU CAN SEE. OH, INTERESTING, THIS IS OVER 73KILOBYTES IN SIZE. VERY INTERESTING. >> THE SIZE WE HAVE TODAY IS 10 GIGABYTES. >> IN THE NOT-TOO-DISTANT FUTURE, WE WILL BE LIFTING THE DATA SIDE IN POWER BI TO HAVE PARITY WITH AZURE ANALYSIS SERVICES, FULLY FEATURED WITH THE SCALABILITY, MANAGEABILITY AND OPEN PLATFORM CONNECTIVITY. >> ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. [APPLAUSE] >> NOW, AMIR, ONE LITTLE THING. EVERYTHING I HAVE SHOWN YOU SO FAR IS EITHER IN PUBLIC PREVIEW OR COMING VERY SOON. BUT WHAT I WANT TO SHOW YOU NOW IS SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL. IT IS A SNEAK PEEK THAT WILL COME SHORTLY AFTER. SO I HAVE ANOTHER DATA SET HERE AND THIS ONE IS TRULY A BEAST. THIS ONE IS OVER 340 GIGABYTES IN SIZE. >> WHAT IS IT THAT YOU KNOW YOU ARE RUNNING THAT -- >> THAT IS THE INTERESTING THING. THIS IS RUNNING ON A SINGLE PROGRAM WITH P2 CAPACITY. P2 CAPACITY WITH 340 GIGABYTES OF RAM? >> THAT IS TECHNICALLY IMPOSSIBLE. >> WELL, WE HAVE DEFIED THE LAWS OF PHYSICS AGAIN, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE HAVE DONE. [LAUGHTER] >> SO WE ARE INTRODUCING OR WORKING ON ENHANCING THE DYNAMIC MEMORY ENHANCEMENT CAPABILITIES FOR POWER BI. NOT EVEN DATA SETS BUT EVEN SUBSETS OF DATA SETS CAN BE DYNAMICALLY SWAPPED IN AND OUT OF MEMORY AND THIS IS THE NEXT GENERATION OF DATA MANAGEMENT SERVICES. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. [APPLAUSE] >> SO THOSE NUMBERS CAN BE A LITTLE CONFUSING, BIG NUMBERS, 17 GIGABYTES, 300 GIGABYTES, I WANT TO EXPLAIN WHAT WE HAVE THERE. WE HAVE A 1 GIGABYTE LIMIT IN POWER BI, THEN WE RAISED IT TO 10 GIGABYTES. WHAT CHRISTIAN JUST SHOWS YOU IS THAT WE CAN GO TO THE FULL MEMORY THAT THE MACHINE HAS, AND THEN WE WILL SHOW YOU THE BIGGER NUMBER. IT CAN GO BEYOND MEMORY, UP TO TEN TIMES THE MEMORY. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE IMPORT DATA SETS IN POWER BI UP TO 4000 GIGABYTES, 4000 TIMES MORE THAN WHAT WE STARTED WITH FOUR YEARS AGO AND THAT IS THE NEXT GENERATION OF POWER BI IN THE WORKS AND COMING NOT SO FAR IN THE FUTURE SO THAT IS WHERE WE'RE HEADED. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? [APPLAUSE] >> OKAY, TALKING ABOUT THE ENTERPRISE, LARGE DATA SETS AND 'EM MANAGEMENT TICK MODELS AND EIM WITH PAGINATED REPORTS BUT IF YOU ASK THE CIO WHAT IS TOP OF MIND FOR THEM, THEY WILL TELL YOU IT IS ALL ABOUT SECURITY, YOU KNOW? CAN OTHER PEOPLE SEE THE DATA, IS MY DATA LEAKING ANYWHERE AND MICROSOFT OVER THE LAST TWO DECADES THROUGH CIRCUMSTANCES WERE FORCED TO BUILD A REAL POWER HOUSE IN THE AREA OF SECURITY. WE HAVE OVER 3500 ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS AND RESEARCHERS WORKING THE SECURITY SPACE. YOU KNOW, WE CAN IMAGINE WE RUN THOSE DEVICES THAT POWER THE WORLD, WE HAVE SO MANY LOG-INS THAT WE HAVE, SO MANY E-MAILS WE HAVE TO SCAN. IN FACT, EVERY MONTH, WE BLOCK 5 BILLION MALICIOUS ATTACKS ON YOUR MACHINES AND WITH THAT IP THAT WE HAVE AT MICROSOFT, WE CAN BRING IT TO POWER BI TO MAKE IT THE MOST SECURE BI PLATFORM IN THE WORLD. SO TODAY I WANT TO ANNOUNCE A NEW FEATURE, ON PAR WITH BI, YOU WANT TO COMPRISE REQUIREMENTS, WANT TO MAKE SURE IT IS FULLY SECURE, YOU CAN BRING YOUR OWN KEY BUT IT WILL GO BEYOND THAT AND TO SHOW THE FUTURE OF SECURITY IN POWER BI AND HOW WE BRING IT TO BE A FULL MEMBER OF THE OFFICE FAMILY IN TERMS OF SECURITY, I AM GOING TO ASK ANTON TO JOIN ME ON STAGE. >> THANK YOU, GOOD MORNING, EVERYBODY. [APPLAUSE] >> WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR US? >> SO WE ESSENTIALLY TALKED TO CUSTOMERS ABOUT THEIR CONCERNS AND ALL OF THEM EXPRESSED THE NEED FOR BETTER SENSITIVITY THROUGH POWER BI. THEY NEED LOCAL CONTROLS, WHO CAN ACCESS THE DATA AND HOW THEY ACCESS IT TO BE COMPLIANT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS. SO WE ARE JOINING FORCES WITH MICROSOFT'S LEADING CYBER SECURITY TEAMS THAT DELIVERED MICROSOFT PROTECTION AND MICROSOFT SECURITY. SO WHAT I WILL SHOW YOU NOW, COMING SOON AND VERY EXCITING BECAUSE IT WILL BE A GAME CHANGER FOR POWER BI IN THIS DOMAIN. SO FOR THE THIRD DEMO, LET ME SHOW YOU HOW INFORMATION IS PROTECTED IN POWER BI. THE SENSITIVITY IS USED BY AN ORGANIZATION TO PROTECT OFFICE FILES AND NOW THE SAME A REFLECTED IN POWER BI. SO HERE I HAVE QUITE SENSITIVE DATA THAT WILL HAVE HIGH BUSINESS IMPACT ON MY ORGANIZATION. SO NOW IN REPORT SETTINGS, I HAVE THE NEW DATA SENSITIVITY CONTROL WHICH ALLOWS US TO VIEW THE SENSITIVITY LEVEL FROM THE ORGANIZATION AND I WILL REMIND YOU THESE OTHER SAME LEVELS DEFINED FROM OFFICE FILES AS WELL AND I CAN SHOES THE ONE THAT IS APPROPRIATE FOR THIS REPORT AND HAVING VERY SENSITIVE FINANCIAL DATA, CLASSIFIED AS HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL AND CLOSELY CONTROLLED. BUT IT DOES NOT END HERE. THE DATA IS NOW PROTECTED IN POWER BI BUT THE SENSITIVITY LABELS THAT I JUST SET ON THIS REPORT WILL PERSIST WHEN THE DATA IS EXPORTED OUTSIDE POWER BI. LET ME JUST EXPOSE IT. SO THE DATA, OVER TO YOU. >> NOW IT IS IN THE EXCEL FILE BUT IT IS NOT UNPROTECTED >> NO, THE BEAUTY OF THIS IS NOT ONLY IS THE SECURITY LEVEL SET IN EXCEL5 WHICH WE CAN SEE NOW -- [INDISCERNIBLE] BUT BECAUSE MY ORGANIZATION DEFINED THAT IT ONLY SECURE USERS CAN ACCESS THE DATA, THIS IS APPLIED SO ONLY USERS THAT HAVE PERMISSION CAN ACCESS THIS FILE. >> AND SO IF YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, SECURITY -- YOU ARE CHIEF OF SECURITY AND THAT WORRY ABOUT DATA LEAKAGE, THIS WILL MAKE SURE THE DATA STAYS WITHIN THE FILE WHEN YOU TRANSFER THE DATA. >> EXACTLY AND THE POSITION CAN NOW USE SINGLE SOLUTION TO SET THE SENSITIVITY POLICY IN OFFICE AND IN POWER BI ALSO BUT THAT IS NOT ALL. WE HAVE MORE. IF AN ORGANIZATION WANTS TO HAVE BETTER CONTROL IN HOW THEY ACCESS THE DATA, WITH OUR CYBER SECURITY CAPABILITIES, WE JOINED FORCES WITH MICROSOFT SECURITY AND I WILL SHOW YOU HOW CONTROLS CAN BE APPLIED ON POWER BI. SO THIS DEMO, I AM GOING TO TAKE THE ROLE OF THE BUSINESS ANALYST, TODAY WALKING FROM HOME, UNMANAGED DEVICE, HOME PC, AND WHILE MY ORGANIZATION ALLOWS ME TO WORK FROM POWER BI FROM HOME, BECAUSE THE DATA IS SECURED AND SAFE, THERE ARE CERTAIN CONTROLS THAT WON'T BE ALLOWED BECAUSE I AM ON AN UNMANAGED DEVICE. SO HERE I AM ON BI, NATIVE EXPERIENCE, I CAN EXPLORE BY DESKTOP IN POWER BI BUT WHEN I EXPOSE IT TO FULL POWER BI, REMEMBER NOW I AM ON A MANAGEMENT DEVICE AND I AM EXPORTING A REPORT WITH HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL DATA. WHAT WILL HELP IS THAT THE TRANSFER CONTROL WILL KICK IN AND IDENTIFY THIS IS AN UNAUTHORIZED ACTIVITY AND BLOCK IT. >> SO NOW WE DON'T REALLY MANAGE THE SECURITY OF USERS BUT HOW IT IS MANAGED, MAYBE GEOGRAPHY, SUB-GEOGRAPHY, DON'T ALLOW DOWNLOADS AND SO FORTH. >> EXACTLY AND THIS IS USED BY ORGANIZATIONS TO MONITOR ALL OF THE INFORMATION INCLUDING OFFICE, SOURCE, BOOKS AND OTHERS. >> THAT IS AWESOME. >> BUT THAT IS NOT ALL. FROM THE -- WE SHOWED YOU FROM THE USER PERSPECTIVE BUT NOW LET'S LOOK AT THE MANAGED PERSPECTIVE. THIS HAS ALL THE INFORMATION THAT IT NEEDS TO SEE ABOUT SENSITIVE DATA AND NOT ONLY THIS, THIS VIEW IS GOING TO BE ALSO REACHED BY SECURITY INSIGHTS COMING FROM MICROSOFT STARTUP SECURITY. AND NOT ONLY THIS, THEY WILL BE USING THIS TO ACCESS MICROSOFT SECURITY PORTAL AND GET MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE SECURITY NOTIFICATIONS AND THE ACTIVITY NOTES AND MUCH MORE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. [APPLAUSE] >> WE ARE CLEARLY GOING TO MAKE POWER BI HEAD AND SHOULDER ABOVE ANY OTHER SECURITY SOLUTION WE HAVE IN THE BI SPACE. NOW, THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN HEAVILY INVESTING IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE POWER BI. WE ARE LUCKY. WE HAVE AN AMAZING, AMAZING ASSET AT MICROSOFT. WE HAVE OVER 5000 ENGINEERS, RESEARCHERS THAT BASICALLY. [ AUDIO CUTTING OUT ] >> MICROSOFT PROVIDES THE BEST AI RHYTHM ACROSS VISION, TEXT, SPEECH, HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, IT IS JUST INCREDIBLE AND WE ARE TAKING ALL OF THAT ASSET AND BRINGING IT AND INTEGRATEING IT INTO POWER BI AND TODAY I AM JUST EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT WE ARE MAKING GENERALLY AVAILABLE THE INTEGRATION OF AZURE CONNECTIVITY SERVICES IN POWER BI AND AZURE MACHINE LEARNING IN POWER BI AND YOU CAN USE IT AND PUT IT INTO PRODUCTION. [APPLAUSE] >> THE OTHER VISUAL WE HAVE BEEN LEARNING IS ACROSS AI VISUALS AND WE SHIFTED QUITE A FEW MONTHS AGO THE VISION AND THAT WAS QUITE REMARKABLE TO SEE THE RECEPTION. THERE WAS SOMETHING MAGICAL ABOUT THE VISION. IT PROVIDED US AMAZING INSIGHT TO PUT IN THE REPORT, FORMAT IT, HIGHLIGHT IT WITHOUT THE VISUALS AND WE ARE GOING TO BRING MORE AND MORE OF THOSE AI VISUALS INTO POWER BI AND THERE WILL BE EVEN MORE AMAZING INSIGHTS FOR THE USERS AND TO SHOW US TWO THINGS IN THE WORKS OVER THE COMING WORKS, INVITE CHRISTINA TO THE STAGE. >> THANK YOU, AMIR, HI, EVERYONE. [APPLAUSE] >> ALL RIGHT, SO IN THIS SCENARIO I AM PLAYING AN ANALYST WHO HAS A BEAUTIFUL POWER BI REPORT, IT IS ALL ABOUT VIDEO GAMES AND LOOKING AT VIDEO GAME SALES AND RATINGS. BUT I WANT TO BE ABLE TO ADD NATURAL LANGUAGE FOR OUR BUSINESS USERS. I WANT TO NOT ONLY INTERACT BUT TO ASK SIMPLE QUESTIONS. SO WHAT DO WE SEE ON THE SCREEN HERE. THIS IS NOT A Q & A DASHBOARD, THIS IS NOT A BUTTON WITH Q & A. THIS IS A FULLY FLEDGED Q & A VISUALIZATION WITHIN POWER BI. SO GOING OVER HERE, YOU CAN SEE THERE IS A NEW Q & A VISUAL YOU CAN BUILD. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? FIRST OF ALL IF YOU SELECT THE VISUALIZATION, YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE IT AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE SO IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD AND MAYBE CHANGE THE COLORS AROUND FOR SOME OF THE SUGGESTIONS, YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND DO THAT. IT IS ALSO FULLY THEMABLE. SO IF YOU WANT TO SWITCH THE THEME, SWITCH IT TO SAY HIGH CONTRAST, IT RESPONDS AND IS ANOTHER VISUAL ON THE CANVASS. SO LET'S GO AHEAD AND INTERACT WITH THIS VISUALIZATION. SO YOU CAN SEE WE'RE GETTING STARTED WITH SUGGESTED QUESTIONS AND THESE WERE GENERATED BY POWER BI. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO SET THIS UP. SO WE COULD LOOK AT NUMBER OF GAMES THROUGH DIFFERENT GENRES AND IT GIVES ME THESE SO NOW I CAN ACCESS THAT AND IT IS NOW OUT OF CONTEXT EXPERIENCES. >> NICE. >> SO NOW I CAN UPDATE THIS FOR MY USERS AS WELL. SO LET'S LOOK AT GLOBAL SALES BY PRODUCER IN THE DATA SETS. SOMETHING INTERESTING HAS HAPPENED HERE. BECAUSE POWER BI DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE TERM FOR USER. YOU CAN SEE IT UNDERLINED IN RED. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE RESULTS I AM GETTING BACK, IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS ANSWERING THE QUESTION I ASKED. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? WE'RE ACTUALLY INTEGRATING WITH OFFICE SYNONYMS THESAURUS AND USING THAT YOU CAN SEE -- [ AUDIO DROPPING OUT ] >> -- AND YOU AUTOMATICALLY CAN SEE THE ANSWER IS CORRECT. SO LET'S MAKE THIS A LITTLE HARDER. YOU WANT TO NOT ONLY LOOK AT GLOBAL SALES BY PUBLISHER, MAYBE I WANT TO LOOK AT MY AWESOME PUBLISHERS AND WE DON'T KNOW THE WORD AWESOME AND YOU CAN SEE IT HAS NOT UPDATED EITHER. SO I WILL ADD AWESOME TO THE VOCABULARY THAT IT UNDERSTANDS. SO THIS IS A NEW TOOL FOR Q & A WHERE YOU CAN ADD NEW SYNONYMS, ADD NEW VOCABULARY. SO LET'S JUMP IN TO SEE WHAT THIS EXPERIENCE LOOKS LIKE. I WANT TO SUBMIT THIS QUESTION TO TRAIN Q & A ITSELF. SO YOU CAN SEE IT IS REVERSING THE QUESTION TELLING US PUBLISHERS, WHAT IS IT THAT THEY HAVE -- >> HIGH SENTIMENT? >> YES, SO MAYBE YOU CAN LOOK AT SOMETHING LIKE SENT -- SENTIMENT AND THAT IS HOW EASY IT IS TO ADD NEW VOCABULARY TO Q & A AND IT IS SUPER SIMPLE. >> YEAH, BUT THERE IS MORE, RIGHT? [APPLAUSE] >> THANK YOU. HOWEVER IF I WANT TO IMPROVE Q & A, I REALLY NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF QUESTIONS MY BUSINESS USERS ARE ASKING ME. THEY ARE THE SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS, THEY HAVE ALL THIS RICH VOCABULARY AND I CAN ADD ALL OF THESE GREAT SYNONYMS BUT I WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE ASKING. THAT WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM ANYMORE. IF I JUMP EVERYHERE, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE ALL THE QUESTIONS ASKED BY YOUR BUSINESS USERS DIRECTLY INSIDE THE POWER BI SERVICE. >> THE POWER BI DESKTOP CONNECTING TO THE SERVICE AND SHOWING IT HERE SO YOU CAN FIX ANY MISUNDERSTANDING, THAT IS PRETTY AMAZING. >> SO NOT ONLY CAN I SEE ALL THE QUESTIONS ASKED BY BUSINESS USERS, I CAN SEE WHICH ONES ARE NOT UNDERSTOOD. SO I CAN EASILY GO IN AND FIX THEM. I SAW A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT INDY PUBLISHERS, MAYBE THEY HAVE PUBLISHED LESS THAN TWO GAMES, APPLY THAT AS A FIX AND NOW Q & A WILL LEARN WITH A INDY PUBLISHER IS AND BE ABLE TO TEXTUALIZE THE WORD INDY. SO WE GO BACK OVER HERE, YOU CAN SEE THAT INDY HAS NOW BEEN LEARNED AND THERE IT IS FOR ALL THE DIFFERENT WORKS. AWESOME. [APPLAUSE] >> SO IT WILL BE SO EASY TO ADD THIS VOCABULARY FOR Q & A FOR YOUR BUSINESS. >> AND THIS IS WHERE WE TAKE Q & A TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL. IT IS NOT THIS GREAT POP-UP THAT YOU HAD BEFORE, THE MODELING BECOMES PART -- YOU WILL HAVE INCREASED CONNECTIVITY. WHAT DO YOU THINK? [APPLAUSE] >> NOW THE NEXT AI VISUAL IS SOMETHING YOU GUYS ASKED FOR DIRECTLY. NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. IN THE USER VOICE, IDEAS PAGE, IT IS THE ONE, THE DECOMPOSITION TREE. >> YES, SO I AM VERY EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE WE ARE WORKING ON THE DECOMPOSITION TREE VISUALIZATION. YOU GUYS ASKED FOR IT, WE ARE ON IT. SO AMIR STOLE MY THUNDER A LITTLE BIT DURING THE KEYNOTE, YOU MAY HAVE SEEN IT ALREADY IF YOU WERE THERE BUT THIS IS WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. AS YOU CAN SEE I HAVE PLOTTED ONE AND YOU CAN SEE IT IS SO FLUID AND SO GREAT -- >> LOVELY INNOVATION, ALSO. >> YES, I WILL CLICK ROUND AND THE WHOLE TREE ANIMATES. IF I ONLY WANT TO LOOK AT MY UB SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS, I SELECT THAT. TREE UPDATES, GIVES ME THAT PATH SO IT IS SO MUCH FUN TO EXPLORE YOUR DATA THIS WAY. BUT LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT HOW YOU CAN ALTER THIS PRETTY MUCH FROM SCRATCH. I GO OVER HERE, I START WITH A MEASURE AND SOME OF THE THINGS I WANT TO ANALYZE AS WELL. SO YOU CAN SEE I START WITH THE VISUAL FLOW, I HAVE A MEASURE OF CRITICS, USER RATINGS, CRITICS RATINGS AND I AM INTERESTED TO SEE WHERE DO CRITICS AND RACERS DISAGREE. SO A CRITICAL SCORE, MEANS CRITICS LOVE IT, USERS DO NOT RESPOND AND VICE VERSA. SO NOW I SELECT THIS PLUS AND I AM NO LONGER BOUND BY DRAGGING THESE VARIOUS FIELDS IN. I CAN GO AND JUMP INTO ANY DIMENSION I WANT. SO LET'S SELECT SOMETHING LIKE GAME GENRE AND THE WHOLE TRUE WILL AN NOTATE AND UPDATE. SO USERS SEEM TO PREFER THINGS LIKE FIGHTING GAMES BUT WHEN IT COMES TO SPORTS, THERE IS A REALLY BIG SKREPGS SEE IN SPORTS. SO I WANT TO FOLLOW THIS AND SEE WHERE ELSE -- HOW THIS SKREPGS SEE ACTUALLY GROWS. AND INSTEAD OF ME HAVING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH TO DRILL INTO NEXT, WE WILL SPRINKLE THIS WITH CAPABILITY TO HELP YOU EXPLORE THE VARIOUS PATHS. SO I WILL GO OVER HERE AND THE TREE WILL FIGURE OUT THE NEXT LOGICAL THING IS FOR ME TO LOOK AT PLATFORM AND FOR THE PC, THIS IS WHERE THE GAP GROWS AND BECOMES NEGATIVE AND I CAN KEEP DOING THIS TO EXPLORE AN INTERESTING SUBGROUP FOR ME AND I WILL DO IT A COUPLE OF TIMES, SEE ELECTRONIC ARTS PUBLISHER FOR PC. >> WHAT ARE THESE GAMES? >> WELL, LET'S SEE. THESE ARE THE FINDINGS, AND DOESN'T MATTER IF IT IS 15, 16, 17, IT IS CLEAR AND SO MUCH FUN AND EASY TO EXPLORE YOUR DATA AND THIS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR BOTH YOUR BUSINESS AND ANALYST USERS TO DRILL IN AND EXPLORE YOUR DATA. >> WHAT DO YOU THINK, GUYS? [APPLAUSE] >> THANK YOU, CHRISTINA. >> THANK YOU, EVERYONE. [ AUDIO CUTTING OUT ] >> -- WE HAVE MORE THINGS YOU ASKED FOR AND YOUR WISH IS OUR COMMAND SO I WILL INVITE JOHN THOMPSON TO THE STAGE TO SHOW US EVERYTHING ELSE. >> HI, EVERYBODY, GOOD MORNING. YOU KNOW THE BEST THING ABOUT WORKING ON POWER BI IS? IT IS NOT ALL THE FUN FEATURES I GET TO SHARE, IT IS YOU FOLKS, YOU OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE FEEDBACK YOU GIVE US. THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE. ONE OF THE MVP'S ARE ASKING FOR A SEEMINGLY SIMPLE IMPROVEMENT ASKING FOR SOME TEXTUAL LABELS AND IN HIS SPARE TIME, HE WENT AND ADDED THAT FUTURE. NOBODY HAD PLANS TO DO IT, HE JUST DECIDED HE WOULD GO AND DO IT AND I AM REALLY PLEASED TO SHOW YOU THAT THE VERSION OF POWER BI DESKTOP THAT IS SHIPPING TODAY, I WILL ZOOM IN SO YOU CAN SEE IT BETTER, CHANGE THE LABELS, RATHER THAN SAYING TOTAL, IT WILL SAY OVERALL AND YOU WILL SEE THE DATA AT THE TOP. SO A SIMPLE THING, JUST CHANGING LABELS BUT IT MEANS YOU HAVE FINE CONTROL OVER EXACTLY HOW YOUR REPORTS LOOK AND FEEL. REALLY COOL. SO NOT JUST THESE SMALL THINGS, RIGHT? I WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE BIG THINGS, TOO. NOW, CHRISTINA TALKED ABOUT THE REALLY COOL COMPOSITION TREE BUT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT NUMBER 1, THE KPI INDICATORS. I WILL GIVE YOU A PREVIEW AVAILABLE VERY SOON, JUST AS YOU CAN DO FORMATTING IN THE TABLE METRICS, I WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO TURN ON ICONS. REALLY COOL, RED, YELLOW, GREEN, ONE CLICK, NO EXPRESSION, NO DACS -- >> JUST LIKE EXCEL GETS YOU THE DATA, BUT YOU COURSE YOU HAVE MORE CONTROL AS WELL. >> IF YOU WANT TO GO LOOK AT THE RULES, YOU HAVE ALL OF THE CAPABILITIES FOR THE OTHER OPTIONS AS WELL SO 8 0 OR BELOW, RED OR GREEN, YOU CAN CHANGE THE ICONS, YOU CAN EVEN DO THINGS LIKE SPECIFYING IN YOUR THEME, LITTLE IFS SO YOU CAN HAVE THESE WONDERFUL ANIMATIONS. [APPLAUSE] >> THAT WAS OBNOXIOUS -- >> YES. [OVERLAPPING SPEAKERS] >> OKAY, I WILL SHOW YOU THESE. WE HAVE SOME GREAT THINGS COMING SOON. >> SO IT IS NOT JUST FEEDBACK FROM THE COMMUNITY THAT WE HEAR ON THESE THINGS, WE GET FEEDBACK FROM CUSTOMERS AS WELL AND MANY OF IT IS AROUND NEAR REALTIME REPORTING AND PEOPLE HAVE HAD SUCCESS IN USING OUR REALTIME POWER BI BACK CODEING PROCESS BUT THERE IS SOME PROBLEM SETTING IT UP AND WE WANT TO MAKE IT SIMPLER AND SO IT IS REALLY EXCITING THAT WE ARE GOING TO BRING THIS TO THE POWER BI DESKTOP AS WELL. I HAVE A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO THIS HERE, SHIFTING THE GAME LITERALLY BECAUSE I AM TALKING ABOUT CARS, I HAVE PACK -- BACKGROUND VISUALS, SUGGESTIONS AND SO FORTH BUT THIS IS THE REPORT ON THE SQL DATABASE, NO -- [OVERLAPPING SPEAKERS] >> AND WHERE IS THE DATA COMING FROM? IT TURNS OUT -- HOW DO YOU TURN ON THE REALTIME? >> OH, THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME TO DO THAT. SO WHAT I WILL DO ON THE RIGHTHAND SIDE IS TURN ON AUTO REFRESH AND NOW EVERY SECOND, POWER BI WILL RECREATE YOUR REPORT FOR THE DATA AND WHERE IS THE DATA COMING FROM? IN THIS CASE IT IS FROM A GAME. >> OH, YEAH. >> I AM OBVIOUSLY DRIVING A JAGUAR BECAUSE THE BEST AND AS I GO AROUND THE TRACK, YOU WILL SEE THE DATA START TO STREAM THROUGH. SO UPLOAD THIS INTO SQL USER, POWER BI IS SENDING IT UP AND DOWN WITH THE CONNECTION. AND I AM REALLY BAD AT DOING THIS BECAUSE IT IS REALLY HARD BUT YOU CAN SEE MY SPEED IN THE DATA AT THE TOP, THE TRACK POSITION -- REALLY I AM NOT DOING SO WELL AND YOU GET THE IDEA, ALL RIGHT? OKAY, OKAY. >> SIMILAR, REALLY COOL, RIGHT? AND JUST A COUPLE OF SECONDS LATENCY, RIGHT? >> YES, IT IS REAL TIME. SO THE LAST THING I WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS THE CORE MISSION, MAKING POWER BI AVAILABLE FOR YOUR DATA. WE WANT TO MAKE IT SUPER INVENTIVE TO DO EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO WITH YOUR REPORTS. WE TALKED ABOUT THE NEW FILM BUT THERE WAS A FEATURE WE SHARED ON STAGE LAST YEAR THAT WE BORROWED FROM POWERPOINT AND AS YOU DIRECT THESE AROUND, YOU GET THE RED GUYS AND I AM SURE YOU USED THEM AND THEY ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN LAYING OUT THE REPORT MORE NEATLY BUT THERE IS ANOTHER THING WE BORROWED FROM POWERPOINT IS WE CAN CHOOSE TWO ITEMS AND GROUP THEM TOGETHER. [APPLAUSE] >> NOW I CAN RESIZE THEM TOGETHER, MOVE AROUND TOGETHER, WE EVEN DO THINGS LIKE REMEMBERING THE RELATIVE SIZES, NOT MAKING IT SO SUPER PRODUCTIVE -- >> MOVING THESE THINGS AROUND. >> HOW MANY TIMES YOU WANT TO MAKE IT JUST BASICALLY FULL OF TITLES? [APPLAUSE] >> WITH WHETHER YOU ARE A PRIME OR EXISTING USER, THIS WILL BE GREAT. THESE GROUPS, WE WILL TAKE TO THE NEXT LEVEL. WOO , WE LIKE DOING POWER BI. SO NOW YOU CAN DO SMART THINGS WITH THE CONTAINERS AND ACROSS THE TOP HERE, I HAVE THOSE FINDINGS IN ONE OF THESE GROUPS BUT I SET THAT GROUP TO SCALE TO FILL THE AVAILABLE SPACE SO THE ITEMS IN THAT GROUP WILL FILL THE AVAILABLE SPACE. SO I COMBINE IT WITH THINGS LIKE BOOK MARKS, FOCUSED ON CONSOLE SALES AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENS TO THE PC ONE. PC IS THERE AND EVERYTHING ELSE STRETCHES TO FILL THE SPACE. SO IT AUTO-FILLS ITSELF SO I DON'T HAVE TO RECREATE ALL OF THOSE HIDE AND SHOW, EVERYTHING STRETCHES TO FIT. COOL, HUH? [APPLAUSE] >> SO THERE ARE THREE MODES TO THIS GROUP AND THE THIRD ONE IS WHAT I HAVE ON THE LEFTHAND SIDE HERE. THIS IS A SCROLLING REGION, A GROUP THAT ALLOWS ME IN ONE SECTION OF THE REPORT TO PROGRESSIVELY REVEAL MORE INFORMATION TO USERS TO INTERACT. I THINK THIS IS REALLY GOING TO REVOLUTIONALIZE POWER BI. THIS WILL BE THE NEXT BIG THING. >> WHAT ABOUT THE NEW LOOK I MENTIONED IN THE BEGINNING? >> YEAH, SO WE ARE HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE NEW LIGHT COLORS TO THE PANES BUT THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN AS WELL THAT I AM SURE YOU CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE. THIS IS RIBBON AND IT DOESN'T JUST LOOK LIKE THE OFFICE RHYTHM, IT IS AND YOU WILL GET CONNECTIVITY THAT YOU EXPECT FROM OFFICE PRODUCTS LIKE THE SPIN GALLERY AND THIS ALSO INCLUDES A SET OF REFRESHED THEMES WE WILL BE SHIPPING SOON IN POWER BI AND THIS IS THE NEW UPDATED DEFAULT TEAM. WE'RE MOVING FROM THE REDS AND YELLOWS AND GREENS AND BLACKS TO A WHOLE NEW PALLETTE. THIS IS A RIGOROUS USER TESTING TO MAKE SURE THE COLOR SEPARATION IS GOOD, WHETHER YOU ARE WORKING IN HIGH CONTRAST, COLORBLIND, IT IS EASY TO IDENTIFY THE PATENTS IN YOUR DATA. >> IN BLIND TESTS, 80 PERCENT OF USERS LIKED THIS ONE, RIGHT? >> EXACTLY. AND WE CAN DO SOME OTHER THINGS AS WELL, BACKGROUND IMAGINE THAT SHOW OFF THE CAPABILITY OF THESE THINGS TO DATA UTILIZATION BEST PRACTICE WHERE WE FOCUSED ON FONTS AND LABELS AND SIZES AND BACKGROUND COLORS TO HELP DISTINGUISH ACROSS THE CHARTS AS WELL. WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> VERY COOL. [APPLAUSE] >> SO NOW THE SMALLEST DEMO -- >> THERE IS ONE MORE THING I WANT TO SHOW. SO THIS IS A SEEMINGLY SIMPLE THING AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE THAT I HAVE HERE BUT YOU WILL SEE IN THE FORMATTING, THIS IS A SIMPLE CHANGE BUT SOMETHING THAT WILL MAKE YOU SO PRODUCTIVE -- >> SO HAPPY. OKAY, LET'S SEE. >> LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS. SO I WANT TO TRACE THE PHONE, COME HERE AND EVERYTHING IN MY VISUAL CHANGES. [APPLAUSE] >> NOW SAY I WANT TO MAKE THIS A LITTLE BIGGER -- [OVERLAPPING SPEAKERS] [LAUGHTER] >> AND THEN CHANGE THE COLOR. YOU KNOW THIS WILL MAKE PEOPLE SO PRODUCTIVE. IT WILL SAVE YOU SO MUCH TIME WHEN YOU ARE BUILDING THESE REPORTS AND THIS IS HOW WE ARE MAKING POWER BI A POWERPOINT FOR YOUR DATA. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Every month I thought Power BI can't keep going at the same pace it has experienced past couple of years but Microsoft keeps surprising the BI community again and again. Great company, great product, and great people working behind Power BI.
Would love if they have a dark mode option for the desktop app, but seems like some very exciting things ahead!
What visual did they use for the game tiles in the decomposition tree demo? or on the thumbnail?
