No, you don't need a completely new infrastructure. The data transformation (ELT) runs resource-efficiently on your existing SQL database (e.g., Azure SQL, MS SQL Server). Visualization and analysis take place entirely within your existing Power BI environment using our custom visuals. There is no hidden process.science cloud.
To start Process Mining, we generate an event log from your source systems. Essentially, this is a flat table with three mandatory core columns:
1. Case ID (e.g., an order number)
2. Activity Name (e.g., "Invoice approved")
3. Timestamp (e.g., "2026-03-20 14:30:00")
All other metadata (user, department, invoice value) can be linked via standard Power BI relationships in a star schema.
Our complete solution works perfectly with Power BI Pro, Premium per User (PPU), and Premium capacities (Microsoft Fabric). Since we offload the compute-intensive data transformation to your SQL database, Power BI remains performant regardless of your license level.
Basically, yes. Our visual is compatible with Power BI Report Server for pure on-premises scenarios. However, since Microsoft sometimes uses older versions of the visual engine there, we gladly check compatibility with your specific server version before a PoC.
Because our dashboards and visuals integrate seamlessly into the Power BI data model, all your existing RLS rules apply automatically. If a purchaser is only allowed to see data for Plant A, the process graph automatically renders only the process flow for Plant A. No duplicate rights maintenance is needed.
