Organizations today are building applications faster, automating workflows at scale, and turning data into insights, powered by platforms like Microsoft Power Platform. What started as a low-code productivity layer has quickly become mission-critical, embedded in the processes that support revenue generation, day-to-day operations, and strategic decision-making.
But as the reliance on these business intelligence assets grows, so does the associated risk. The same platform accelerating innovation can also amplify the impact of operational errors, misconfigurations, and malicious actions.
A misconfigured workflow, a deleted report, or a broken application can disrupt business processes, compromise decision-making, and erode trust in the systems the business relies on. And when something goes wrong, recovery is rarely straightforward.
Commvault is helping address these challenges with enterprise-grade data protection and recovery for Microsoft Power Platform, starting with Power BI – allowing organizations to help keep the insights, workflows, and apps they build protected and rapidly recoverable.
Power BI: The Gap Between Insight and Recovery
At the center of many Power Platform deployments is Microsoft Power BI, providing analytics and business intelligence, transforming data into reporting, forecasting, and operational visibility.
When Power BI assets are lost or compromised teams can quickly lose access to trusted insights, interrupting reporting cycles, and delaying business decision-making.
In practice, however, protection strategies lag behind the importance of these assets. Many organizations rely on manual file exports or limited native capabilities that weren’t designed for comprehensive recovery. When something breaks, teams are often forced to rebuild manually with no ability to restore exactly what’s needed. This makes recovery slow, error-prone, and difficult to scale.
