Section 3: Data Modeling

Everything you have learned so far comes together in this section, in which we will build a well-designed data model in Power BI. The section starts with data modeling components from a Power BI point of view. Then the concept of granularity is discussed. While in the previous chapters you prepared the building blocks of your data model, it is now time to physically build the model with real-world hands-on scenarios. This section also explains config tables and walks you through some scenarios in which you need to take advantage of the power of config tables. This section ends with naming conventions and data modeling best practices.

This section comprises the following chapters:

  • Chapter 8, Data Modeling Components
  • Chapter 9, Star Schema and Data Modeling Common Best Practices
