Data analytics and statistics have not only served as the basis for blockbuster sports dramas but as a key factor in how top teams and athletes in competitive sports dominate the field. Data can assist in making key decisions in real-time, identifying performance gains, tracking an athlete's physical condition, and helping fans engage more with powerful insights.

This session will explore the current level of data analytics in top-level sports such as football, Formula 1, and more, giving you an introductory overview and examples of how tools like Kusto (KQL) and PowerBI can be used to ingest, analyse, and visualise sample sports data in real-time. You'll gain a better understanding of how Microsoft Fabric and Azure's wider data analytics offerings can be leveraged to get the most out of telemetry logs and IoT data for different business use cases.

Join me if you're passionate about data, a sports enthusiast wanting to gain better insights, or even better: both!

Target audience: fans of sports, data, and data in sports.
