44

45
+ To ensure the best user experience in Excel, the MDX API should be able to respond to
46
+ requests with a subsecond latency. Consider the following recommendations:
47
+
48
+ - The [ deployment] [ ref-deployment ] should be collocated with users, so deploy it a region
49
+ that is closest to your users.
50
+ - Queries should hit [ pre-aggregations] [ ref-pre-aggregations ] whenever possible. Consider
51
+ turning on the [ rollup-only mode] [ ref-rollup-only-mode ] to disallow queries that go
52
+ directly to the upstream data source.
53
+ - If some queries still go to the upstream data source, it should respond with a
54
+ subsecond latency. Consider tuning the concurrency and quotas to achieve that.
