- Microsoft Purview
Family of Microsoft products for data governance, security and compliance. Its Data Map stores only metadata, such as lineage, schema and classification, never the data itself.
- Retention label
A Microsoft Purview label placed on a single file or message to control how long it is retained, when it is removed, or both; it can also mark the item as a record. Labels are made available through policies that either publish them for people to choose or apply them automatically.
- FIRST
A DAX function available only inside visual calculations. It fetches the value at the start of one axis of the visual's matrix, which makes it handy for comparing each point with the first; its opposite is LAST.
