Seamless Migration from Power BI P SKUs to Microsoft Fabric F SKUs: 2-Weeks POC

MAQ Software

Ready to transition from Power BI Premium (P SKUs) to Microsoft Fabric (F SKUs)? Unlock the full potential with our 2-day Proof of Concept – designed to showcase the benefits and performance gains

With the evolution of Microsoft Power BI Premium capacities (P SKUs) into unified Microsoft Fabric F SKUs, organizations must adapt quickly to stay aligned with Microsoft’s modern data platform vision. MAQ Software offers a comprehensive consulting service to help organizations transition from P SKUs to F SKUs with minimal disruption and maximum benefit.

Our experts will assess your current workloads, map capacity usage, evaluate licensing and cost implications, and perform a guided migration with validation and optimization. We ensure your transition is smooth, secure, and future-ready — unlocking the full potential of Microsoft Fabric.

Empower your business with MAQ Software's expertise


By participating in our POC, you will resolve following challenges:

  • Understanding licensing and performance implications between P SKUs and F SKUs
  • Identifying compatibility and potential configuration gaps
  • Downtime or service interruptions during migration
  • Capacity sizing and workspace reallocation
  • Underutilization of Fabric-native workloads post-migration

Target customers

  • Digital transformation & innovation leaders
  • BI & Analytics Managers
  • Enterprise customers with existing Power BI Premium P1/P2 capacities
  • IT Infrastructure Leaders

Agenda:

Week 1: Discovery, Assessment & Planning

  • Workload Inventory: Identify all assets using P SKUs — reports, dataflows, datasets, and APIs
  • Usage Analytics: Assess capacity utilization patterns, performance issues, and concurrency
  • SKU Mapping & Rightsizing: Recommend optimal F SKU(s) based on actual and forecasted usage
  • Risk & Dependency Analysis: Identify custom connectors, APIs, or integrations affected by SKU change
  • Migration Plan & Timeline: Define workspace migration sequence, testing checkpoints, and fallbacks

Week 2: Assessment & Use Case Prioritization

  • Capacity Provisioning: Set up F SKU environment, configure capacity admins and rules
  • Workspace Migration: Migrate Power BI Premium workspaces to Fabric capacities
  • Post-Migration Validation: Run performance, access, and security validation
  • Monitoring Setup: Configure Fabric capacity metrics, alerting, and monitoring in Power BI
  • Knowledge Transfer: Train admin/BI teams on managing Fabric SKUs and Fabric-native workloads
  • Go-Forward Plan: Roadmap to leverage other Fabric workloads (e.g., Lakehouse, Warehouse, Eventstream)

Deliverables:

By the end of the POC, you will receive:

  • Fabric Migration Assessment Report
  • SKU Sizing & Licensing Recommendation
  • Migration Execution Plan
  • Post-Migration Validation Checklist
  • Admin & User Enablement Guide
  • Monitoring Dashboard Setup

Outcome:

Join our POC and enjoy these benefits:

  • End-to-End Migration Support: From discovery to testing and optimization
  • Capacity Right-Sizing: Match workloads with the right F SKU to balance performance and cost
  • Fabric-Ready Optimization: Enable workloads to leverage Data Engineering, Warehousing, and Real-Time capabilities
  • Workspace & Asset Compatibility: Ensure all workspaces, reports, and dataflows work flawlessly post-migration
  • License Advisory: Guidance on capacity reservation vs. pay-as-you-go for cost efficiency
  • Zero Downtime Execution: Stepwise migration plan with fallback mechanisms
