Connect TigerGraph to Power BI - Enterprise Data Analytics & Real-time Insights
Certified Data Connectivity
Why CData for TigerGraph Power BI Connectivity
Break free from data loading limitations of TigerGraph reporting in Power BI. Easily connect Microsoft Power BI with live TigerGraph data for up-to-date visual analysis and reporting.
High-performance TigerGraph Connectivity
Eliminate TigerGraph performance & query speed issues in minutes
Large datasets often slow down reports and dashboards in Power BI due to its in-memory model. However, CData's Power BI Connector for TigerGraph overcomes these challenges with advanced query optimization and Direct Query support. By leveraging Direct Query, you can avoid loading your entire TigerGraph dataset into local memory and instead benefit from efficient server-side processing.
Breakthrough Power BI data volume and storage limits
Power BI Pro imposes a 1GB dataset size limit, and even Premium workspaces have constraints on query performance. The CData Power BI Connector supports Direct Query, reducing the amount of data retrieved when analyzing TigerGraph data. Instead of loading the entire TigerGraph dataset, only the necessary subset of query results is returned for your reports, optimizing performance and efficiency.
Microsoft Power BI
Comprehensive TigerGraph data and metadata discovery
Find the TigerGraph data you need for reports — fast and easy.
The TigerGraph Connector provides full access to both data and metadata, enabling efficient automated data exploration and discovery. It features intelligent row scanning, type detection, relationship mapping, and support for unstructured data. These capabilities allow Power BI to recognize data fields without the need for casting or conversion, making it easier and faster for users to create meaningful reports.
Simplify report development with SQL-like querying
Certain data sources, such as TigerGraph and other NoSQL databases, lack native support for SQL-like queries, often requiring data transformation before use in Power BI. CData simplifies this process with a built-in SQL transformation layer that automatically translates SQL queries into real-time data source calls. This enables seamless TigerGraph integration, making it as straightforward as connecting to a traditional relational database.
Live TigerGraph reporting. No ETL Required
Mitigate security & compliance risks vs. other integrations
CData's live Power BI connectivity for TigerGraph overcomes the challenges associated with traditional integration methods like ETL and local data replication. Unlike data replication, live querying enhances security and compliance by eliminating risks such as data staleness, inconsistency, and corruption. It also reduces exposure from overprivileged access and delayed revocation while minimizing the attack surface created by duplicate copies. Additionally, live connectivity simplifies regulatory compliance by ensuring better adherence to data residency, retention policies, and auditability requirements.
Native Power BI Gateway and Power Platform support
TigerGraph Power BI Connector supports the use from Power BI Gateway. Power BI on-premises gateway allows publish and auto-refresh the data set in your Power BI Desktop to Power BI cloud and other Microsoft Power Platform services such as Power Apps and Power Automate.
