Direct Lake vs Import Mode - SQLBI perspective

🚀

Marco Russo (who knows a thing or two about Power BI!) from SQLBI released this article recently about Direct Lake and Import mode.

I would say I agree with a lot of what he mentioned; his views echoed the views that I have shared in this community and in my videos: just because Direct Lake is available to you now, doesn't mean you should use it in all scenarios!

Just thought I'd send this reminder as it might impact your architectural decisions (and now my opinion has a bit more strength of conviction behind it, knowing that Marco Russo somewhat agrees 😊)
