Re: PowerBI + SSRS 2016

Hi,

With release in mid Jan 2017 to allow Power BI reports publish to SQL Server SSRS, we have some technical questions below :

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/sqlrsteamblog/2017/01/17/power-bi-reports-in-sql-server-reporting-services-january-2017-technical-preview-now-available/

1. Which SSRS version would allow features for this release i.e. allow .pbix files store and administer in SSRS ? 
2. With this release there is a requirement for installation below, does it means SSRS installation also need to install SQL Server Analysis services ? What is the use of this component ? Understand Database engine is for report and data storage.

• Your own VM or server (not one in production use)
• Windows Server 2012 or later (or Windows 8 or later)
• .NET Framework 4.5.2 or later
• SQL Server Database Engine (2008 or later), to store the report server database
• SQL Server Analysis Services (2012 SP1 CU4 or later), to store your data models

1. SSRS Enterprise version has a mobile report (.rsmobile) that could be support in mobile device, then what is the architecture for this feature ? More specifically, assume SSRS is hosted in company on-premises network, then how to authenticate through mobile to company network ?

1. Do user need to install any mobile apps or just use mobile browser in order to view .rsmobile report ?

Thanks !
