Enterprise level controls and audit for what is flowing thru the Enterprise gateway. This would include blocking (black list) access to servers or database. If we have a privacy data source which we do not want expose to PowerBI externally from the company. This might have attributes such as preventing certain columns or tables from being passed thru the gateway. Or it might be controlled at the database or server level.

Additionally, the classification (public/private/confidential) of the data could also be edited into the data connections. In future iterations, a rule based set of classification could dynamically be applied to the data connections.

A view of all the different data sources which is configured to flow thru the gateway which a DBA or other like role might need to sustain and maintain over time. First step would be view of the information and later it would edit and change.
