PowerBI and Cognos BI 10 cubes

[cjvieleers]

Hi,

I am evaluating PowerBI at the moment.

We have a Cognos BI 10 environement with several reports, cubes, dashboard etc

Is it possible to connect to a Cognos BI 10 cube from PowerBI.
Any plugins available perhaps?

greetings

Hi cjvieleers,

Currently, power bi doesn't have built-in cognos model connector, you can vote for this idea:https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/33123994-connect-power-bi-to-ibm-....

Senturus has a custom connector that will connect Cognos version 10 & 11 cubes over to Power BI to use as a data source. This will let you leverage all the curated data, user permissions, and audit trails already in place in cognos and the powerful PBI visualizations. You can deploy to Power BI Service and leverage the enterprise gateway + custom connector to reach back inside your network securely for this data. For more info or a demo, visit:

Hello,

I am evaluating the possibilities of Power BI.
I see there are many data sources Power BI can connect to.

However, since we are using Cognos BI 10 and have many Cognos cubes, i was wondering if its possible to connect PowerBI to Cognos BI 10 cubes (or other objects)

I do see an aticle about TM1, but thats not Cognos BI.

Thanks in advance!
