Connect Microsoft Power BI to MongoDB

Our Power BI Connectors support a new era of real-time analytics. The MongoDB Connector for Power BI has been engineered and optimized for live access to MongoDB data.

Full Metadata Discovery

The MongoDB Connector exposes rich metadata, critical for automated data exploration and discovery. Includes intelligent rowscan, type detection, relationship exploration and support for unstructured data.

Robust SQL-92 Engine

Built on a rich SQL-92 engine with support for bulk operations, push-down, client functions, and aggregation, our connectors seamlessly handle even the most complex queries from modern BI & Reporting.

Unmatched Performance

With optimized performance down to the socket level, our connectors offer unmatched performance. Read and write speeds over twice as fast as other SaaS, NoSQL & Big Data connectivity solutions.

Dynamic MongoDB Metadata Discovery

Our MongoDB Connector delivers metadata information based on established standards that allow Power BI to identify data fields as text, numerical, location, date/time data, and more, to help BI tools generate meaningful charts and reports.

  • Utilize server-side functionality and intelligent row-scanning to detect data types.
  • Drill into unstructured data to parse column names and data types.
  • Expose existing relationships based on foreign keys or parent-child structures.

Complex Query Processing

The CData MongoDB Connector contains an embedded SQL Engine that pushes supported SQL operations to the data source and processes unsupported operations client-side (Query Folding).

  • Issue complex queries using SQL-92 compliant operations and clauses.
  • Leverage server-side data processing for supported operations.
  • Build new relationships and custom datasets.
