SUMMARY:Predictive Analytics with Power BI
DESCRIPTION:Predictive Analytics with Power BI \nPredictive analytics\, also known as data mining\, machine learning\, and artificial intelligence (AI)\, is an increasingly popular requirement. Fortunately\, you don’t have to be a data scientist to benefit from machine learning in Power BI. This session is organized in two parts: \n·         Part 1 – We will revisit the existing machine learning features in Power BI\, including Quick Insights\, Explain Increase/Decrease\, linear forecasting\, integration with R and Python. \n·         Part 2 – We will look at exciting new features that are coming up in near future\, such as integration with Azure ML and Cognitive Services\, and automated machine learning.

SUMMARY:Azure Data Lake for First Time Swimmers
DESCRIPTION:Data Lake may be the hot new way to store data for reporting\, but it can be scary if you’ve never dealt with one. If you have no idea what a data lake is\, have no fear! You will get an intro to the concept of data lake and what scenarios you should be considering it as your platform. From there you’ll get to see how Azure Data Lake Analytics and U-SQL allow developers and data professionals to create compelling analytics with data that previously was difficult to work with.

SUMMARY:Atlanta MS and Power BI Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Aggregations in Power BI \nAggregations are one of the most important optimization methods for managing big datasets in Power BI. Combined with Direct Query storage mode\, they allow big datasets to be analyzed efficiently by answering high level analytical queries quickly from memory while sending more detailed queries back to the source database. In this session\, you will learn about the concept of aggregations\, different table storage modes in Power BI\, different kinds of aggregation tables\, how to configure aggregation tables so that they can answer high level user queries\, and finally how to use tools such as DAX Studio or Extended Events to determine if the aggregations are actually being used.

SUMMARY:Power BI Time Intelligence – Beyond the Basics
DESCRIPTION:Time-Intelligence refers to analyzing calculations and metrics across time and is the most common type of business intelligence reporting. Power BI has a lot of built in capabilities to help you get started but these alone are not always enough for most real-world solutions. The key to mastering time-intelligence in Power BI is a good date table and understanding how to manipulate the filter context. This session will teach you how to do both! \nIn this (demo-heavy) session\, we’ll quickly review Power BI’s built-in time intelligence capabilities and why you should avoid them! We’ll also cover the importance of a good date table\, what attributes it should include\, and how it can be leveraged to simplify complex time-intelligence calculations. Finally\, we’ll breakdown a handful of the 40+ DAX time-intelligence functions\, showing you how they work under the covers (hint: filter context) and how they can used in combination to accommodate complex business logic.
