Join us for this session as we explore Microsoft Factory (with demos!)

Microsoft Fabric is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that offers organizations a comprehensive analytics solution, from data ingestion to actionable insights. By integrating Azure and open-source capabilities within its Power BI ecosystem, Microsoft Fabric addresses the challenges of data complexity and fragmentation. It simplifies the analytics process, eliminates the need for extensive integration, and provides a shared foundation for data management, collaboration, and security. Attendees of this session will learn about the key components of Microsoft Fabric and how it represents the future of analytics.

The benefits of Microsoft Fabric include a unified analytics platform, the introduction of OneLake for unified data storage, and seamless integration with Power BI and Office products. It empowers business users through its low-code/no-code experience, enabling them to focus on complex tasks while providing timely insights. Microsoft Fabric reduces pricing model complexity and offers mature capabilities from Azure, such as Data Factory and Apache Spark, as a SaaS offering. It embraces open-source file formats and simplifies the overall analytics architecture.
