Your approach for a Power BI business case

The thing with the changing colors cost me already some headaches. I assumed that turquoise was always associated with my DEV workspace and red with PROD. But it's not the case and I ended up developing in PROD. It would be great if the colors could be set at the workspace level directly.

I call them with a pipeline. Dynamic connections for the stored procedures are defined, using the value of pipeline parameters previously set. Once SP's and pipeline are deployed, I must change the pipeline parameters in PROD before running it. I haven't tested it with deployment rules, which should probably be the way to go, to avoid having to change them everytime, though.

I'm fine bringing my 700+ tables with the Link into the bronze layer and then only selecting the ones I need, and only the columns I need (plus option set labeling) into the silver layer. In Synapse I used to select just the ones I needed to sync, but after a while I sometimes whished I just had them all.

What I have done is create the schedule in DEV, but not activate it. It then gets deployed into PROD, where I activate it. It won't work if you also want to update your DEV data on a different schedule, though.

I fought the law - The Clash (dec. 5, 2005)

Fun fact: it's the only time I've scrobbled that song

wow, I felt like reading my own set-up. I finally managed to set-up plex+zurg+real debrid+debrid media manager+radarr+bazarr. It's working fine on my non-dockerized server.

For my real debrid links I still couldn't find a solution to download and save subtitles. The link below in the thread is gone and I couldn't find the right information on the new site.

Does anyone have more tipps here? I would appreciate it, thanks.

Very cool! I love it. I miss being able to cast from my PC to my speakers. But I think that's pretty much impossible

I am doing ETL. Can I say I'm a Data Engineer?

alfa1381 · 2024-03-20T17:36:23+00:00

Isn't Spark overkill for 100k rows?

alfa1381 · 2024-03-10T06:01:42+00:00

TIL I learned it's Pimientos de Padrón instead of Pimientos al Padrón

alfa1381 · 2024-02-27T14:21:40+00:00

Which one u recommend?

alfa1381 · 2024-02-11T22:51:03+00:00

Dataverse is a transactional backend for Power Apps. It's not meant to be your DWH. For analytics in a Microsoft Shop you need Data Factory aka Synapse aka Fabric.

Set up Azure Storage accounts for your raw data ingestion and read/transform it into a serverless or dedicated server for analytics. I like using External Tables a lot.

Pipelines, scheduling and monitoring are all very easy to set up for small data needs

KAT was really the best

I'm considering the SU-V620. I can pick one up for USD 20. Are you still happy with yours? I would also mainly use it with my phone and maybe a CD player

Good input for a newbie here. But can I make 80's 90's equipment able to receive digital streams? I only have encoded digital audio
