Microsoft Fabric makes it easy to get started - but running Fabric as a shared, enterprise-grade data platform is a very different challenge. Many teams struggle not because of missing features, but because their architecture, setup, and ways of working were never designed for scale.

In this session, you’ll learn how to automate Microsoft Fabric end to end. From foundational platform setup to collaborative development and CI/CD. We’ll cover proven patterns for structuring workspaces and repositories, automating environment creation, and enabling safe, repeatable deployments across teams and environments.

Through real-world examples and demos using GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, and the fabric-cicd Python library, you’ll see how to avoid common pitfalls like configuration drift, broken references, and fragile releases.

You’ll leave with practical automation and DevOps patterns to make Fabric predictable, governable, and ready to scale.
