460: Mailbag! Composite Models vs Reusable Datasets: Are We Sending Mixed Messages?


Listen Later

Mike & Tommy go through a great mailbag question on composite models and reusable models, along with how this changes in Fabric.

Whoa! I think I'm triggered after listening to both your composite model episode and your managing multiple dataset episode. Isn't a fair bit of the question similar however much of the discussion seems different between episodes... In one sense- the gold standard seems to be thorough with data modeling/dataset development to build a dataset that can be used in multiple thin reports as needed. But the use of composite models seems to be somewhat discouraged - even though this is another way to re-use key datasets to answer business questions without re-doing the exact same transforms. It was alluded to but not explored that Fabric has better ways of doing this.With the data warehouse or Lakehouse... can you expand on that?Thanks for the podcast. Even though I consider myself skilled at Power BI - I'm constantly learning from you guys!
