This session will focus on Data Engineering with Microsoft Fabric, and in particular bringing lessons from successful implementations.

In particular we will focus on:
- performance optimisations within different zones of a solution (bronze, silver and gold).
- how delta table features can be used to simplify processing
- different orchestration options - Airflow and Pipelines, and when to chose what
- how to leverage real time intelligence and data engineering for simpler orchestration.
- different options to minimize cluster start-up time, especially with custom environments
- workspace and capacity design considerations
- deployment approaches and tricks for notebooks and environments

Throughout this session there will be a number of demos to illustrate the above points.

This session assumes a reasonable degree of familiarity with Fabric and some familiarity with Spark.
