BI Genius Architecture Overview
BI Genius is designed to be secure, scalable, and fully controllable, giving organizations the ability to deploy their own AI-powered analytics assistant without relying on third-party hosting or SaaS platforms.
This article outlines the core architecture of BI Genius, highlighting the key components, how they interact, and where the solution is deployed.
High-Level Architecture
BI Genius follows a modular, cloud-native architecture built entirely on Azure. It’s composed of the following primary components:
1. AI Agent (Frontend)
A customizable, white-labeled web component that can be embedded into any application or portal
Provides the user interface for natural language interactions (chat, voice, or text input)
Sends user queries to the backend engine for interpretation and response
2. Orchestration Engine (API Layer)
Receives user input and routes it through the appropriate processing pipeline
Handles conversation flow, session management, and security checks
Applies prompt engineering logic and instructions based on your configuration
3. Data Context Engine
Connects to your Power BI Semantic Models using XMLA and DAX queries
Optionally connects to additional sources such as internal knowledge bases, PDFs, SharePoint, or public websites
Assembles and structures the data context to be used by the AI model
4. Azure OpenAI Integration
Leverages Azure-hosted OpenAI services for natural language understanding and generation
Operates entirely within your Azure subscription—no data is sent to external SaaS providers
Interacts with structured data and knowledge to generate grounded, reliable responses
5. Admin & Configuration Portal
Used to configure prompt behavior, data sources, branding, user access, and security settings
Supports versioning, access controls, and environment-specific settings
Enables non-technical users to manage and maintain the AI assistant
Security & Deployment
Fully Deployed in Your Azure Environment All components are deployed inside your Azure subscription—ensuring full control over data, access, and compliance.
No Customer Data Leaves Your Network The entire interaction—from user prompt to AI response—occurs within your infrastructure.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) Fine-grained permissioning allows you to restrict features, data sources, or user types. Power BI RLS fully supported.
Summary
BI Genius is deployed entirely in your Azure environment—you control everything.
It’s built for Power BI-centric analytics, but can also ingest external content.
You get a branded, embeddable AI assistant without giving up data sovereignty or flexibility.
