Would love to visualize streaming data from Apache Kafka topic(s) instead of having to use Event Hub.

agree, even I work for Microsoft, I think customers would love to see Power BI directly connect with Kafka.

RE: Allow streaming data visuals from Apache Kafka

Many large enterprise companies are standardizing on Apache Kafka and moving away from propriatory message bus systems. Leveraging these investments with PBI would help these customers in a significant way to not reinvent the wheel. At least a tight integration with HDinsight managed Kafka services would be awesome.
