Data Dive #37: Explosive Growth in Analytics Means BI Sprawl 📈
Business Intelligence (BI) environments are growing faster than ever — more reports, more dashboards, more data products. But with that growth comes a serious challenge: BI Sprawl.
Unmonitored and unmanaged BI environments quickly spiral out of control. Costs skyrocket. Governance breaks down. Security risks increase. And when business users run into issues, getting answers becomes a frustrating, time-consuming process.
The core issue? Most BI teams lack visibility into what’s actually happening across their tools. There’s no central place to monitor usage, identify redundancies, or understand what’s being consumed and what’s going stale.
That’s where the Datalogz Control Tower comes in.
The platform is built to enable data and BI teams to this gap — integrating with tools like Tableau, Power BI, Qlik, and Spotfire to bring clarity and control. Through automated reporting and alerts, they help organizations catch problems early, reduce unnecessary costs, and ensure BI investments are delivering real value.
The most impactful approach? Focus on the consumption layer — the point where users engage with data. That’s where inefficiencies show up, and where smart monitoring makes the biggest difference.

Datalogz at the Microsoft Fabric Community Conference 2025
Microsoft is pushing the boundaries with Fabric, showcasing an ambitious vision for the future of data. However, there's still a clear need for more robust, integrated management tools - especially when it comes to Power BI.
Key themes that dominated conversations included capacity monitoring, data governance, and accelerating migration efforts. That’s where Datalogz Control Tower steps in. More than just a stopgap, Control Tower is uniquely positioned to bridge the current gaps in Fabric and serve as a long-term solution - not just for Power BI, but across your entire BI ecosystem.
It’s no surprise that AI integration across Microsoft’s products is generating major buzz - and with good reason. The potential is massive. But without the right guardrails, this wave of innovation could unintentionally accelerate BI sprawl.
At Datalogz, we believe governance should scale with AI adoption - not stand in its way. That’s why Control Tower is designed to bring visibility, consistency, and control to rapidly evolving BI environments, ensuring AI-powered insights don’t come at the cost of chaos.
We had countless inspiring conversations with customers, partners, and new faces who stopped by our booth throughout the event. FabCon was a powerful reminder of the strength of community and the impact of collaboration.
