This is not a general Business Intelligence type of question.

Hello Sandy,
The most recent example I saw was from a company named Versium. Believe it or not, Microsoft funds the license cost so there is no usage license cost for the product (only Azure consumption). However, the demo I saw did run on top of Dynamics365, which does have a license cost, although less than what a Salesforce would cost you.
The demo I saw was recorded and can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkGEeOPl3ts .
