Relevant data pages are loaded on-demand (paged in to memory).Įvicted datasets are quickly made available for queries. With on-demand load, you get the following benefits during subsequent queries and refreshes: On-demand load is enabled by default for large datasets, and can provide significantly improved load time of evicted datasets. If you have to wait for an evicted dataset to be reloaded, you might experience a noticeable delay. Datasets are evicted so that Power BI can load other datasets to address user queries. Power BI uses dynamic memory management to evict inactive datasets from memory. A single dataset is still constrained to the memory limits of the SKU. Dataset evictionĭataset eviction is a Premium feature that allows the sum of dataset sizes to be significantly greater than the memory available for the purchased SKU size of the capacity. You can check the status of dataset conversions to and from Premium Files by using the Get-PowerBIWorkspaceMigrationStatus cmdlet. The storage mode is now set to Premium Files. Set-PowerBIDataset -Id -TargetStorageMode PremiumFiles It can take a few seconds to convert to Premium Files. Run the following cmdlets to set the storage mode. The storage mode is ABF (Analysis Services backup file), which is the default. (Get-PowerBIDataset -Scope Organization -Id -Include actualStorage).ActualStorage Run the following cmdlets to sign in and check the dataset storage mode. Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt

On the Datasets tab for the workspace, under the dataset settings, you can see the ID in the URL.įrom a PowerShell admin prompt, install the MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt module. You must have capacity admin and workspace admin privileges to run the PowerShell cmdlets.įind the dataset ID (GUID). You can also enable large dataset storage format by using PowerShell. In Default storage format, select Large dataset storage format, and then select Save. In the workspace, select Settings > Premium. You can see which regions are supported in the region availability section. If the region doesn't support large datasets, the large dataset storage format option described below is disabled. In supported regions, all new datasets created in a workspace assigned to a Premium capacity can have the large dataset storage format enabled by default. Subsequent refreshes should be faster, depending on your incremental refresh policy. The first refresh could take a while to load the history. Invoke a refresh to load historical data based on the incremental refresh policy. In the service > dataset > Settings, expand Large dataset storage format, set the slider to On, and then select Apply. Publish the model as a dataset to the service. If your dataset will become larger and progressively consume more memory, be sure to configure Incremental refresh. For existing datasets, only step 3 is necessary.Ĭreate a model in Power BI Desktop. Steps here describe enabling large datasets for a new model published to the service. For more information about which features are available, and which are not, see Power BI feature availability for U.S. Large datasets in Power BI Premium are not available in the Power BI service for U.S. Instead, datasets can grow beyond that limit in the service on refresh. Large datasets in the service don't affect the Power BI Desktop model upload size, which is still limited to 10 GB. When enabled, the large dataset storage format can improve XMLA write operations performance. If you're planning to use XMLA endpoint-based tools for dataset write operations, be sure to enable the setting, even for datasets that you wouldn't necessarily characterize as a large dataset. While required for datasets to grow beyond 10 GB, enabling the Large dataset storage format setting has other benefits.

The large dataset size limit in Premium is comparable to Azure Analysis Services, in terms of data model size limitations. Large datasets can be enabled for all Premium P SKUs, Embedded A SKUs, and with Premium Per User (PPU). When enabled, dataset size is limited by the Premium capacity size or the maximum size set by the administrator. With Premium capacities, large datasets beyond the default limit can be enabled with the Large dataset storage format setting. Power BI datasets can store data in a highly compressed in-memory cache for optimized query performance, enabling fast user interactivity.
