I see a lot of features in Power BI for connecting to Microsoft's own hadoop service (I won't spell it out here because I don't want it to turn up in search results but an acronym for it might be HDI) but I'd like to see support for other distros too. For example, I have an on-premises Cloudera cluster, I'd like to be able to connect to both Hive, Impala and Spark running on that to extract data from it.

RE: Support for hadoop distros other than Microsoft's own
How about Hortonworks cluster too? Considering its the foundation for Microsoft's own HDI there should be a Direct Query connector soon.
RE: Support for hadoop distros other than Microsoft's own
We have an immediate need to connect to Spark Onpremises for a big customer and need DirectQuery support vs. import as the current connector offers in PowerBI Desktop
