In the landscape of data analytics, the ability to swiftly access and analyze large datasets is critical. This session goes deep into the power of Microsoft Fabric as a robust foundation for data engineering and analytics.

We'll kick off with a theoretical exploration, explaining how data is stored and managed within Microsoft Fabric and Onelake. This foundational knowledge will set the stage for the practical demonstrations that follow.

During the session, we will build an end-to-end flow as we import a substantial volume of data using a streamlined ETL process. Once loaded into a lakehouse, the spotlight will shift to Power BI. Here, we'll showcase the Direct Lake mode, a feature that allows users to tap into vast datasets with remarkable speed and efficiency, ensuring almost real-time insights without the typical lag.
