On-premises Data Gateway

What is On-premises Data Gateway?
The on-premises data gateway is software installed on a local machine that lets the Power BI Service securely connect to data sources that live inside a private network, such as an on-premises SQL Server. It acts as a bridge, forwarding queries from the cloud to the source without exposing the source directly to the internet. A gateway is required whenever a scheduled refresh or DirectQuery needs to reach data not otherwise accessible from the cloud.
