Power Platform is a set of Microsoft solutions that enables you to build intelligent, scalable, and automated applications for multiple devices with little to no code. Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power Virtual Agents are based on Common Data Service, which stores all the business data and facilitates its security and uses in the different applications.
The Business Intelligence solution
Power BI is a business analytics solution that enables you to visualize data and share information across your organization.
