What is Azure Analysis Services?
Leverage Azure Resource Manager to quickly create and deploy an Azure Analysis Services instance, which allows for the efficient backup and restoration of your existing models to the cloud platform, thus taking advantage of its scalability, flexibility, and management features. This service can be easily adjusted in terms of scale—whether you need to increase, decrease, or temporarily halt operations—ensuring that you only pay for the resources you actually use. By integrating data from various sources into a unified and user-friendly BI semantic model, you can promote clarity and ease of access. This method enhances self-service capabilities and encourages data exploration among business users by simplifying both the presentation of data and its underlying structure. As a result, the time needed to generate insights from large and complex datasets is significantly reduced, while quick response capabilities ensure that your BI solutions meet the needs of business users and adapt to changing requirements. Additionally, you can connect to real-time operational data through DirectQuery, keeping you informed about the dynamics within your organization, and utilize your preferred data visualization tools to bring these insights to life, fostering a deeper understanding of your data landscape. This comprehensive approach not only supports better decision-making but also encourages a culture of data-driven insights throughout the organization.

Feature rich ecosystem coupled with a robust interface
Date: Mar 16 2022SummaryThis is definitely a tool that would come highly recommended if you are at all considering migrating your current IT backbone to Azure in any capacity. This will help streamline how you document and manage your data assets.
PositiveAs my company has begun its journey to the cloud, we have partnered with Microsoft on its Azure platform for a number of initiatives including modernizing our reporting and business intelligence platform. With the large number of disparate systems in our organization, Azure Analysis Services has really helped to provide a unified view of all our data assets and inventory in a centralized location.
NegativeWhile this tool will help to alleviate a lot of the headache in unifying and documenting multiple data models, it is not a magic bullet. There is a learning curve with using this tool, and ensuring that end users understand how this tool is being used. Some end users expect to just be able to throw things into this tool and see what comes out, which often is garbage in and garbage out. I hope that Microsoft can more succinctly define how this tool should best be used.
