I've been testing some visualization tools and next is PowerBi. Some tools made me use apache drill, but it seems that Powerbi is full of connectors. Is there a way to connect naturally to hadoop (not hdinsight) or an easy workaround?

    Hello @Geiber Arturo Ugalde Gutierrez ,

    Power BI helps to connect to what matters to you. Excel spreadsheets, on-premises data sources, big data, streaming data, and cloud services: it doesn't matter what type of data you want or where it lives, connect to hundreds of data sources with Power BI.

    You can use Hadoop File (HDFS) & Spark connector to connect Hadoop.

    For more details, Data Sources in Power BI.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
