Corrections
Jeffrey asked me to correct the following of his statements as follows:
At 11’55” → most other self-service BI tools are report centric.
At 25’ → the development of the Vertipaq Engine started first, followed, soon afterwards, by the development of the DAX Engine. The development of both engines then proceeded in parallel until the initial release of the tabular model.
