Vibe Coding (tell your computer what to code) and MCP servers have been growing rapidly over the last year. Terms like “Talk to your data” are appearing more and more. While it sounds ideal to simply tell a computer, using speech or text, how to build a data platform, there are important considerations to keep in mind to avoid pitfalls.

This session is an enthusiastic yet critical introduction to building data platforms with AI in Microsoft Fabric.

We will cover:
* What are we trying to achieve with AI? Can it close competence gaps or even replace developers?
* Introduction to MCP (Model Context Protocol)
* What Fabric MCP Servers are available
* Data modelling
*Testing and QA
* Security considerations

After this session, attendees should have a clear idea of how they can build a data platform by chatting, an understanding of common pitfalls, and inspiration to get started with their own MCP servers.
