Do we need a data warehouse before Birst?
No — Birst includes a cloud-native warehouse and semantic layer. You can also point it at your existing Snowflake/BigQuery if you have one.
How does Birst compare to Power BI / Tableau?
Birst is a full BI stack — warehouse + model + viz — with Infor-aware packaged content. Power BI and Tableau are viz-first and require you to build the data plumbing yourself.
Can we keep our existing Power BI investment?
Yes — Birst can serve as the governed semantic layer that Power BI / Tableau consume.
