Consultants should optimize data refresh processes by implementing incremental refresh instead of full refreshes for large datasets. Setting appropriate refresh schedules based on data usage patterns prevents server overload. Using DirectQuery mode for real-time data scenarios and Import mode for performance-intensive reports balances speed and efficiency. Refresh failures should be tracked using Power BI Service alerts to prevent disruptions. Power BI consultant must ensure data sources remain stable, API rate limits are considered, and connection strings are securely managed. Proper documentation of refresh policies ensures smooth troubleshooting and long-term stability.
