So, what\u2019s new? Well, today, Power BI Desktop is free and it\u2019s aimed at personal use, while Power BI Pro costs $9.99 per user per month and enables collaboration. Under the current licensing, if an organisation has a few users who publish reports and many users who consume them, then everyone needs to be licensed with a Power BI Pro licence.<\/p>\n<p>Power BI Premium will be generally available late in the second quarter of 2017 and will be licensed by capacity. This means that a Power BI Pro licence will still be required for users publishing reports, but consumers will no longer need to be licensed if their organisation is covered by Power BI Premium. And how does the capacity licensing work? Well, it\u2019s by node and luckily there\u2019s a calculator available to work out just how many nodes you\u2019re likely to need based on your estimated number of Pro, frequent and occasional users. Find the calculator here: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qTdPlG\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qTdPlG<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But what\u2019s a node?! A server? An end-user endpoint? No. Properly called capacity nodes, they\u2019re just a way of purchasing a certain number of virtual cores, memory and bandwidth, dedicated to a customer, that will be sufficient to power the required BI system. At launch, there will be three sizes \u2013 inspiringly called P1, P2 and P3 which, for example, give access to 8, 16 and 32 virtual cores. There\u2019s a Microsoft Power BI Premium Whitepaper which gives you some more information on this and you can find it in the \u201cOther\u201d section of the \u201cApplication Servers\u201d area in our Licensing Guides emporium at: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/MSLicensingGuides\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/MSLicensingGuides<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not the end of the story. There\u2019s also an option for customers who want a hybrid solution and that\u2019s possible with the new Power BI Report Server. When you purchase Power BI Premium you can use the same number of cores that you\u2019ve purchased in the cloud with Power BI Report Server on-premises.<\/p>\n<p>Find the Power BI Premium announcement here: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2pXo1wt\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2pXo1wt<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft announce Power BI Premium, a new member of the Power BI family joining Power BI Desktop and Power BI Pro.
