Amir is the leading world expert in BI and Business Analytics technology. The products invented, designed, and developed by Amir have repeatedly defined the business analytics market. In 1997 Amir founded SQL Server Analysis Services, a product that with its ease-of-use and low-cost had democratized the BI industry and quickly became the most popular BI server in the world. Today, Power BI is driving a similar transformation in the Cloud.

The technologies that Amir invented are shipping as part of SQL Server, Excel, and the Microsoft Power Platform.

The special designation of “Technical Fellow” is Microsoft’s acknowledgement of the key role a top technical leader plays in driving intentional innovation with broad industry impact.
