Monday morning, you open your laptop only to see ingestion failed overnight. Downstream teams still want to their reports , so your pipeline keeps running. Your reports are now lying and nobody looking at them knows it.

You want the broken part of the data platform to stop before it serves false data. You also want everything else to keep running.

Data products let you split a data platform into independent domains. I'll show practical dbt features and Fabric pipeline adaptations that draw a hard boundary between domains, without a full platform rewrite.

Proficiency with SQL and dbt is recommend.
