      • Used for data visualization with interactive dashboards
      • Primarily used by developers and designers

    • Power BI Service:

      • Cloud-based platform for sharing and collaboration on Power BI reports
      • Offers real-time data updates and team sharing
      • Fewer features than Desktop, focused on business users visualizing data created by developers in Power BI Desktop

    • Comparison with Traditional SQL Databases:
