Regardless of which one is "better", an important difference between the two products is that SSRS will always come into the house through IT. PowerBI might come in through the...

About Fusion restaurants: it's pretty rare for them to do everything (or even most things) at a master chef level.
I've never worked with CosmosDB, so I don't speak from experience...

Steve, I did this last year because of your article at this time. I was just telling a colleague about it this year as I saw that the topic came...

I think there are two topics here:
1. Low code / no code development.

Thanks Steve for pointing out this fun website! I did several of the problems in C#, which is not a language I use in my day job. I probably enjoy...

I can think of reasons why this data might be useful if sufficiently anonymized. For example, COVID-19 was detected in an area. Were there a lot of people passing through...
