    Since it seems to depend on .net runtime only (at least more or less), why not port the gateway to linux? There are many customers who want to run linux only backends and are scared of having a windows machine running alongside their holy glory mission critical infrastructure...

    I believe that would be a great evolution for this process, simplifying the interconnection structure of PowerBI with our bases.

    The gateway (on windows server) can access mysql databases on linux as well.

    RE: PowerBI Enterprise Gateway for Linux

    Agree. It seems there is only a gateway into MS. The world is bigger than the OS from Seattle

    RE: PowerBI Enterprise Gateway for Linux

    This is much needed, there are millions of LAMP servers across the Internet and Intranet that need this!

    My organisation is totally cloud based and needs to connect and analyse data from a Linux MySQL hosted web server with the PowerBI service. I guess it is possible to run the gateway, as a service, on my laptop utilising the PowerBI desktop to server connection but this is less than ideal. Connection from PowerBI service to a Linux host running a Linux gateway is sorely needed.

    RE: PowerBI Enterprise Gateway for Linux

    'We need:
    - create gateway for Linux (we have linux enterprice PCs, but we must have hole Windows-machine only for using Power BI GateWay)
    - add multiple accounts from different domain support (we cant create different pay subscriptions even we have several domains, so we must register separate subdomains. But in this case we have to use two gateways, and as result - two windows machines only for gateways)
    - add possibility to set custom emails for error notification after update error (now email notification after gateway update error not works)
