Having been the indie darlings of the data space, Airflow and dbt have become mainstream - particularly in cloud environments where scalability and flexibility are king. They're revolutionizing the way we construct data pipelines with their fresh approach to orchestration and transformation, presenting a thrilling alternative to the legacy tools most of us are accustomed to.

Now that Microsoft has acquired these new bright stars to include in its cloud ecosystem, there's an entirely new toolbox to tap into - without ever having to leave the confines of your existing stack. During this session, we will meet the dynamic duo of Airflow and dbt in Azure, see how they measure up to Microsoft Fabric pipelines, and review the pros and cons of each strategy. No matter if you're a seasoned coder or just exploring the cloud, you'll know a lot clearer where these tools play a role in your data adventure.
