I think the answer is yes if you buy into the Microsoft stack, which includes SSRS and SSAS being used in conjunction with Power BI. SQL 2016 is a big BI release for Microsoft.<p>Power BI as a standalone product is pretty brutally limited in terms of data volume (250MB compressed data model is the max that can be hosted in the cloud service), and is missing the extensibility and flexibility that comes from a tool like SSRS.<p>As a self contained product, Tableau will likely hold the lead for some time. As a platform, I think Microsoft is beyond Tableau - they cover far more of the BI spectrum (and well, especially with SSAS) than Tableau seems to ever intend to.
