Solution
A comprehensive solution was implemented to address these challenges, transforming the BI process:
Report performance fine-tuning
Thorough analysis and measurement of report performance, optimizing measure code.
Compute intensive data transformations moved to source
Power Query transformations were translated to SQL queries for more efficient processing.
Data consolidation
Disparate data sources were consolidated into a singular Snowflake data warehouse, creating a unified data source.
In-house team upskilling
Guidance was provided on best practices for development to reduce development times.
The new process centralizes data, automates transformations, and optimizes report delivery, significantly improving speed and accuracy.
