Chapter 12: Extra Options and Features Available for Data Modeling
In the previous 11 chapters, we learned many aspects of data modeling to model many different scenarios. This chapter provides brief introductions to some more options available in the Power BI platform that can come in handy in many real-world scenarios. All of the topics discussed in this chapter are too extensive to go through each one in too much detail, but it is nonetheless worthwhile having exposure to them all. In this chapter, we cover the following areas:
- Dealing with slowly changing dimensions (SCDs)
- Introduction to object-level security (OLS)
- Introduction to dataflows
- Introduction to composite models
