Data & Analytics Events in Dublin
The modern data stack has a vocal European community. This page collects events for the engineers, analysts, and analytics engineers doing the work: Databricks and Snowflake user groups, Microsoft Fabric and Power BI community meetups (a particularly active series across the continent), dbt meetups, Airflow and dagster practitioner events, PyData conferences, data-engineering guild nights, PostgreSQL and PGConf events, and the growing list of "we ship a data product" meetups at scaleups across the continent.
This page narrows the Dublin calendar to Data & Analytics events. It's a subset of Ireland's wider tech-event schedule, useful when you want something specific to go to in the city this month.
Dublin's tech-event calendar reflects the city's role as EMEA HQ for most major US cloud, SaaS, and social-media companies. AWS, Azure, GCP, Salesforce, Meta, Google, Microsoft, Stripe, and HubSpot all run recurring developer events here, alongside an independent meetup scene covering Kubernetes, data engineering, AI-applied, product, and engineering leadership.

Big Data in Power BI: Handling billions of rows with great performance
Dublin, 🇮🇪 Ireland
Your data has exploded. You either cannot even import the amount of data anymore

Your data has exploded. You either cannot even import the amount of data anymore, if you can import it, it takes for ever and DirectQuery is super slow. Reports timeout and users are complaining. You're stuck with a problem that you're not sure how to solve.
But there are solutions for really big amounts of data.
Power BI and Microsoft Fabric offer multiple proven strategies to handle billions of rows efficiently. The challenge is knowing which approach to use and when.
What You'll Learn
This full-day training covers every major architectural pattern for extreme-scale data:
- Storage modes compared: Import, DirectQuery, and DirectLake and when to use each
- DirectLake in action: Combining Import speed with DirectQuery freshness
- KQL for performance: Lightning-fast queries on massive datasets
- Databricks Mirroring: Leveraging computational power while keeping Power BI reporting
- Aggregate tables done right: Pre-aggregation strategies that rescue struggling models
Through live demos with billion-row datasets, performance comparisons, and hands-on exercises, you'll build decision frameworks to architect the right solution for your scenarios.
Walk Out Ready
Leave with proven patterns, real-world strategies, and the confidence to handle massive data volumes in Power BI, no more compromising between speed and scale.
