Solved! Go to Solution.
If you only use Power BI Desktop you don't need the Power BI gateway. But you need to install driver software (oracle client) to make a connection: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-connect-oracle-database
If you use Power BI Service you need the Power BI gateway to refresh. Then you must have a server and install all the software (gateway and oracle client): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-onprem-manage-oracle

@Knud is quite right. Since the Oracle data source isn't from MS, I'm afraid the infrastructure is necessary. (The Oracle client can't be included in the Power BI directly.)
Best Regards,
Dale
