Microsoft Fabric with Andrew Snodgrass

What is Microsoft Fabric, and why do you want some? Richard talks to Andrew Snodgrass of Directions on Microsoft about Microsoft's recently announced Fabric product. Andrew explains that Fabric is an effort to integrate the various data products, including PowerBI, DataLake, Data Factory, and Data Warehousing, under a standard banner. It is early days for Fabric, but it's a great time to take it out for a spin for those who haven't dug into Azure data analytics products. But if you have existing implementations of PowerBI and many other data products, test carefully - the migration paths aren't simple!Links:Microsoft FabricAzure Synapse AnalyticsAzure Data FactoryPower BIFabric WorkspacesOneLakeKusto Query Language (KQL)Parquet Files in FabricMicrosoft PurviewOneLake File ExplorerRecorded July 12, 2023
