Connector
A gateway between the data lake and the BI tool.
Customers can only access the data in the data lake via the connector, and currently only the OData protocol (version 4) is supported.
* 
The OData protocol is supported by most BI tools.
The BI connector ensures that:
Access to the connector is authenticated.
Data is formatted correctly (a date field is a real date, not a string).
Data model relations are included.
Calculated fields are included.
