Optimal Data Integration Strategy for Power Apps and Power BI Using Snowflake and Azure DevOps Data

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1
I'm developing a solution that integrates both Power Apps and Power BI, sharing a common data source. The data originates from two primary sources:
  1. Multiple tables in Snowflake (approximately a dozen)
  2. Azure DevOps (ADO) via an OData connection
Additionally, I plan to embed some Power BI report visualizations within the Power Apps solution.
My main concern is establishing the most efficient and maintainable process for data ingestion and modeling. Specifically:
  1. What's the recommended approach for importing the data and constructing the data model?
  2. Should I utilize a Power BI dataflow, a Dataverse dataflow, or an alternative method?
  3. How can I avoid duplicating efforts in data management between Power Apps and Power BI?
  4. What's the best way to ensure that any changes to the data model can be implemented in a single location, affecting both Power Apps and Power BI simultaneously?
I'm seeking a solution that minimizes redundancy and simplifies ongoing maintenance of the data pipeline and model across both platforms.
Also, we will not be utilizing any of the Fabric premium functions.

Many Thanks!

    here is Solution best practice:
     
    Use Dataverse Dataflows to pull data from Snowflake and ADO.
    Model data centrally in Dataverse.
    Use Dataverse tables in both Power Apps and Power BI.
     
    if you need more details, let me k now.
