Chapter 3
Implement and manage semantic models
The previous chapter reviewed the skills necessary to prepare data. This chapter covers data modeling skills. In Power BI, a data model is a collection of one or more tables connected by relationships. Apart from the M language, which is used for data shaping, Power BI uses DAX, which is its native formula and query language. Power BI possesses rich data modeling capabilities, which include creating relationships as well as enriching a data model with hierarchies, measures, calculated columns, calculated tables, and calculation groups.
