Designing Lightweight Data Architectures in Microsoft Fabric for Rapid Prototyping.
Microsoft Fabric offers a unified data platform ideal for enterprise workloads—but it's also extremely powerful for lightweight, modular analytics systems. In this session, we’ll explore how to design flexible, low-overhead data architectures using Fabric components like Dataflows Gen2, Pipelines, and Power BI for rapid prototyping and iterative analysis.
The focus will be on:
Structuring Fabric workspaces for non-monolithic projects
Using Pipelines + Lakehouses for scalable yet quick-start architecture
Best practices for transforming open or raw datasets into usable BI models
Building environments that support short innovation cycles (e.g., research, non-profit, small-scale analytics)
Whether you're an early-stage data professional, solution architect, or innovator working without enterprise backing, this talk will offer practical strategies to apply Fabric’s full power to non-traditional or agile use cases.
