Microsoft Fabric Foundations
What Fabric actually is once the marketing is set aside: several familiar workloads over one storage layer and one pooled bill, and the handful of decisions that determine whether that helps you.
Written in house, from the work rather than from a syllabus. Every example is one we would use ourselves, and every quiz question explains why its answer is right.
What you’ll learn
- Describe what OneLake is and how shortcuts avoid copying data
- Choose between a Lakehouse and a Warehouse for a given team
- Explain the capacity model, and why reports slow down at 9am
- Keep Delta tables maintained so queries do not degrade quietly
- Lay out workspaces so production cannot be throttled by an experiment
- Say when Fabric is not the right answer
Before you start
- · Comfort with SQL and the idea of a data warehouse
- · Some exposure to Power BI helps but is not required
