What's the difference between Pentaho BI Platform Community Edition and Pentaho Kettle? - pentaho

Is it just that one is web based (BI Platform Community Edition) and the other is an application (Kettle). Can Kettle be access through a web browser?

BI Platform/Server is a web platform for performing data mining and running reports.
From the Pentaho community website:
"...the Pentaho BI Server which functions as a web based report management system, application integration server and lightweight workflow engine (action sequences.)"
While it can be used to create action sequences, it lacks the features of Kettle, which is a fully-fledged desktop ETL tool. Kettle provides none of the analysis or reporting functionality found in the BI server, and BI server lacks the ETL capabilities. They are two very different tools.

How to show power BI report in local ASP .NET MVC

Hi is there a way to show power BI reports without embedded or using Azure in an ASP .NET MVC Project? Is for a local project, I already have the report done but most of the tutorials I have found always embedded it or use an SDK that later needs to payed
No, Power BI elements can be rendered only by Power BI (either Power BI Service in the cloud or Power BI Report Server on premise). Your only option to do this is to publish the report to one of these two and then to embed it in your web application.
Depending on the authentication type and where the report is hosted, there are different ways to embed it. Here are some of them:
Embed a report in a secure portal or website
Embed a Power BI Report Server report using an iFrame in SharePoint Server

You could try to use the Azure devops extension Migration Tools for Azure DevOps, which allow you to migrate Teams, Work Items, and Plans & Suits from one Project to another in Azure DevOps/TFS both within the same Organization, and between Organizations. But this without history and This tool is complicated and its not always easy to discover what you need to do.
If you insist on keeping the history, you could also try to use the 3rd tool OpsHub Visual Studio Online Migration Utility. It migrates historical information for work items, version control change sets, test cases, test results, and all the relationships between two tools in an incremental manner.
Note: No matter which tool is used, or manual migration, we may not be able to get results were not a perfect copy, but overall the results were actable.

Migration to Windows Azure

In our organization we are using Hyper-V VMs. We are using Progress Database and apps in the workstations.
For us to migrate into the Microsoft Azure cloud, do we have to migrate our existing Progress database to SQL and rewrite our apps ?
No. You haven't given us much detail about your applications or architecture, but if I make the assumption that you are using the embedded database product by Progress software, then I see no reason that can't run on an Azure VM.
