Differences b/w Power BI & Excel :
- Power BI is designed specifically for data visualization and business intelligence, whereas Excel is a general-purpose spreadsheet tool.
- Power BI offers more interactivity and dynamic reporting features compared to Excel.
- Power BI can handle larger datasets more efficiently than Excel, which might struggle with very large data sets.
- Excel is often easier for beginners to start with due to its familiarity and straightforward interface. Power BI, on the other hand, might require some learning for users to fully leverage its capabilities.

Storage modes in Power BI :
Import : loads data into Power BI for fast performance but may not be suitable for large datasets due to storage limitations.
DirectQuery : connects directly to the data source for real-time querying, suitable for large datasets that shouldn't be imported.
Live Connection : connects to a dataset hosted in Power BI Service, ideal for collaborative report development.

Power BI workspaces are collaborative environments where users can share and collaborate on content. Within a workspace, you can create and organize reports, dashboards, and datasets. Apps allow you to package this content and distribute it to specific groups of users within your organization, making it easy for teams to access relevant insights

A data modeling technique where a single fact table is connected to multiple dimension tables, and these dimension tables are further normalized into sub-dimension tables is called snowflake schema.Star schema is a mature modeling approach widely adopted by relational data warehouses. It requires modelers to classify their model tables as either dimension or fact. All dimension tables directly connect to the fact table.

Use Power Pivot Features in Power BI:
Modeling View: Go to the "Model" tab in Power BI Desktop to establish relationships, manage tables, and define hierarchies.
DAX: Write DAX formulas in the "Modeling" or "Report" tab.
Measures and Columns: Use the "Fields" pane to create measures or calculated columns.
Data Transformations: Use Power Query (accessible via "Transform Data") to clean and shape the data.

Package refresh in Power BI :
- This refresh synchronizes your Power BI Desktop file (PBIX) with the Power BI Service after publishing.
- Ensures that any updates made to the file on your local system are reflected in the Power BI Service.
- It does not refresh the data itself but updates metadata like relationships, measures, and calculated columns in the model.

Important points about Power Query:
- Connects to various data sources like Excel, SQL Server, SharePoint, and web APIs.
- Allows you to transform data by filtering, sorting, grouping, pivoting, and merging datasets.
- Offers tools for cleaning data, such as removing duplicates, filling missing values, and splitting/combining columns.
- Provides a visual interface to apply transformations without needing to write code.

You can use what-if parameters to run scenarios and scenario-type analysis on your data. What-if parameters are powerful additions to your Power BI semantic models and reports because they enable you to look at historical data to analyze potential outcomes if a different scenario had occurred.
