Hi Chris,
First thanks for all you blogs, videos and presentations; they are probably the best material I have used in my career in BI. I purchased this course and as always, enjoying and deriving great value with every video.
Now to the point of my comment, in 2017 PASS Summit you gave a presentation on Power BI and SSAS MD which I am extremely interested in (being a SSAS MD loyalist and hopeful), do you think you might add a video to this Power BI course that might embed some of that material? If not is there any blog or place I can see your comments from the presentation. I can wait a year when PASS publishes there 2017 videos for free, or pay $695 to get it early (its the only video in 2017 that I really want to see early.) Anyways, thought I would check with you before moving in that direction.
Thanks again for all your great SSAS MD material and now adding Power BI to the mix.
Hi Greg, it’s unlikely I’ll be adding that content to my Power BI course I’m afraid. However I will be doing a slightly shortened version of this session at SQLBits at the end of February, and SQLBits always make the videos of their sessions available for free at http://www.sqlbits.com/content/ (although they have had several major screw-ups where the videos have been lost…), so you could wait a few months until then. Otherwise I can send my slide deck to you at the gmail account I see you’ve used here, if you like – it doesn’t have all of the detail or the demos of course, but it should still be useful.
Yes, I would really appreciate the slide deck and will look forward to the sqlbits presentation. I have seen some of your presentations from there before.
Again, thanks for all your great work it has helped me immensely.
