Power BI Licensing Deck

Microsoft’s Power BI Licensing Deck is a useful resource for details on licensing across the Power BI portfolio: Power BI Pro, Power BI Premium Per User, Power BI Embedded, and Microsoft Fabric. We found the Fabric section particularly interesting with its pages on how Capacity Units (CUs) work and Copilot in Microsoft Fabric, as well as the licensing scenarios covering Power BI Premium and Power BI Embedded.

SQL databases in Microsoft Fabric

Microsoft announce that there’s a new member of the Fabric workload family – SQL databases. They consume the same Fabric Capacity Units as the other Fabric workloads, with storage and backups billed separately. However, you can use SQL database in Fabric for free until 1 January, 2025 when compute and data storage charges begin, with backup billing starting on 1 February, 2025.
