  • Even greater performance with dedicated capacity: Get the performance your organization, department, or team needs—with even more capacity in the Power BI service allocated exclusively to you.
  • Deploy on-premises or in the cloud: Choose Power BI in the cloud or keep reports on-premises with Power BI Report Server—with the flexibility to move to the cloud at your pace. View reports through the portal, on mobile, or embedded in your applications.

Power BI Embedded is a platform service that helps you supercharge your applications with stunning and interactive visuals, dashboards, and reports. With Power BI Embedded, quickly create, deploy, and manage data-rich applications using Power BI and connect to hundreds of data sources for real-time analytical insights.

The driving vision for Power BI has always been to enable users across roles, disciplines, and industries to get value by drawing insights from their data within minutes. In response to customer demand, Microsoft has added these new services to Azure Government to empower government agencies and contractors to share analytics more broadly and embed analytics in applications more easily. Power BI delivers an end-to-end business intelligence solution while helping organizations and their partners comply with regulatory and policy requirements.
