Architecture Services

We design the technical foundation that makes your Power BI deployment scalable, secure, and maintainable.

Data Architecture Design

Star schema modeling, semantic layer design, and data flow architecture optimized for Power BI performance and scalability.

Workspace Strategy

Multi-workspace design with dev/test/prod pipelines, access controls, and capacity allocation for enterprise environments.

Governance Framework

Data governance policies, naming conventions, certification processes, and compliance controls for regulated industries.

Fabric Integration Planning

Migration roadmaps from traditional Power BI to Microsoft Fabric with OneLake, Direct Lake, and unified analytics.

Security Architecture

Row-level security, object-level security, workspace RBAC, and sensitivity labels for HIPAA/SOC 2 compliance.

Capacity Planning

Premium capacity sizing, Auto-scale configuration, and cost optimization for Power BI Premium and Fabric.

Architecture Review Process

Our architecture review is a structured assessment that identifies performance bottlenecks, security gaps, and scalability risks in your current Power BI environment.

What We Assess

  • Data Model Quality - Star schema adherence, relationship cardinality, model size, and compression ratios
  • DAX Performance - Query plans, storage engine vs formula engine ratio, and iterator optimization
  • Security Posture - RLS implementation, workspace access patterns, and sensitivity label coverage
  • Capacity Utilization - CU consumption patterns, throttling incidents, and right-sizing opportunities
  • Governance Maturity - Certification processes, workspace naming, and deployment pipeline usage

Deliverables

Every architecture review produces an actionable roadmap with prioritized recommendations, estimated effort, and expected performance improvements.

Architecture Assessment Report

Detailed findings across all assessment areas with severity ratings and remediation steps.

Target Architecture Blueprint

Recommended future-state architecture with workspace diagrams, data flow maps, and security model.

Implementation Roadmap

Phased plan with quick wins (30-day), medium-term (90-day), and strategic initiatives (6-12 month).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Power BI architecture consulting?
Power BI architecture consulting involves designing the technical foundation for your analytics platform - including data models, workspace structure, security, governance, and integration patterns that scale with your organization.
When do we need architecture consulting vs just building dashboards?
Architecture consulting is essential when you have 50+ Power BI users, multiple departments, compliance requirements, or plan to scale to Microsoft Fabric. Without proper architecture, organizations face performance issues, security gaps, and ungoverned sprawl.
How does Power BI architecture relate to Microsoft Fabric?
Microsoft Fabric extends Power BI architecture with OneLake, Direct Lake mode, and unified analytics. We design architectures that leverage Fabric capabilities while maintaining backward compatibility with existing Power BI investments.
