In Microsoft Fabric, Data Factory is the powerhouse behind that process. It’s the next generation of Azure Data Factory, built right into the Fabric platform; making it easier than ever to: - Connect to hundreds of data sources - Transform and clean data on the fly - Schedule and automate ingestion (without writing code)
A Lakehouse in Microsoft Fabric combines the scalability and flexibility of a data lake with the structure and performance of a data warehouse. It’s an all-in-one approach for storing, processing, and analyzing both structured and unstructured data.
OneLake is Microsoft Fabric’s built-in data lake, designed to store data in open formats like Delta Parquet and make it instantly available to all Fabric experiences (Lakehouse, Data Factory, Power BI, Real-Time Analytics).
If you’re starting with Microsoft Fabric, the first thing you’ll need is a workspace, it is a central hub where all data-related assets live. Think of it as your project’s headquarters: datasets, pipelines, Lakehouses, dashboards, and governance settings are all managed here.
In the last decade, data platforms have evolved from siloed solutions into fully integrated ecosystems. Microsoft Fabric is the latest and arguably boldest step in this evolution, bringing together data engineering, analytics, and governance into a single end-to-end SaaS platform.
For years, organizations have operated under the assumption that “good enough” data is… good enough. A few gaps here, a few duplicates there as long as dashboards work and reports run, why sweat the small stuff? That mindset might have worked in the past. But today, “good enough” data is no longer enough and holding onto that thinking could be quietly costing your business millions.
In a world where organizations rely on dozens of apps, platforms, and databases, one thing remains true: fragmented data leads to flawed decisions. That’s why top-performing enterprises are investing in Golden Records: the trusted, unified versions of critical business entities like customers, products, and vendors.
In a world where data is everywhere but rarely well-understood, data cataloguing is becoming a critical pillar of enterprise data strategy. Whether you're a data engineer, analyst, or business leader, knowing what data you have, where it lives, and how to trust it is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity.
Turning chaos into clarity across your data ecosystem In today’s data-driven world, organizations are generating massive volumes of information, but without clear governance, that data can quickly become a liability instead of an asset. A well-crafted data governance policy is more than just documentation. It’s the foundation of trust, compliance, security, and value across your... Continue Reading →
Microsoft Azure remains a powerhouse in the cloud ecosystem, driving innovation across AI, automation, and data analytics. As industries increasingly rely on cloud-native solutions, mastering the right Azure services in 2025 is essential for cloud professionals, developers, and architects who want to stay ahead of the curve.
Whether you're a data engineer, analyst, or developer stepping into the world of cloud-based data integration, Azure Data Factory (ADF) is a powerful tool worth mastering. It allows you to build robust, scalable data pipelines to move and transform data from various sources, all without managing infrastructure.
As a data engineer, your job isn’t just about moving data. It’s about doing it reliably, efficiently, and repeatably, especially when working with cloud data platforms like Azure SQL Data Warehouse (Azure Synapse Analytics). Python is one of the best tools to automate workflows, clean data, and interact with Azure SQL DW seamlessly.
