" summary

Explains that native Power BI gives only a 30-day retention limit and coarse workspace-level lineage, then shows Power BI Sentinel as a SaaS that extracts metadata, writes it into the customer’s Azure SQL DB and returns multi-year usage history so you can forecast licenses and capacity. Demonstrates column-level lineage for premium workspaces, table-level usage across workspaces, and a web portal with customizable Power BI templates. Claims data never persists in readable form on the vendor side and the service passes ISO checks.
