In the Power BI Service, Import mode models are stored offline and paged into memory only when they are needed – for example because someone runs a report that uses the model as its source.

However, brand reputations are especially vulnerable today, where a few bad online reviews can damage years of impeccable service.

A few months ago I blogged about the new limits available for the Maximum Connections Per Data Source property in Premium and why the number of connections that a DirectQuery semantic model can open to a data source is so important for report performance.
