Summary

This chapter introduced paginated reports for Power BI both within the Power BI service and on-premises only via the PBRS. While the support of paginated reports in the Power BI service has greatly reduced the need for PBRS in many organizations, there are still use cases where a fully on-premises solution for reporting is required.

Key topics covered in this chapter were migrating Report Description Language (RDL) files to the Power BI service, the feature differences between PBRS and the Power BI service, and the overall planning, scaling, and upgrading of PBRS.

In the next chapter, we focus on the distribution of published content to end users. This includes the delivery and management of packages of related Power BI content to large groups of users via Power BI Apps as well as other content delivery capabilities of the Power BI service such as data-driven alerts and scheduled email subscriptions.
