Can you use something like DBT with fabric so we can query data in one language? Like I've never used T-SQL or Spark-SQL but know postgreSQL can't I just use that? Also I'm a bit confused, it sounds like fabric is a suite of tools. Can you add other Azure tools onto it like putting it behind a VNET or some Azure ML products or ingest to OneLake via postgreSQL from a backend or dump and read a DuckDB table? Like PostgreSQL and DuckDB is everywhere right now. If any of this is possible a video would be appreciated. You should also discuss fibric cost for small orgs < 50people. Like if I used fabric it would only be for the semantic layer allowing you to reuse models in PowerBI. I don't need half of the other features like KSQL, would I still pay for them to run 24/7 or are they sleeping in inactive containers. That's another thing can you put fabric in an Azure container or config it with Dapr or is that abstracted away? Like what happens if you do a SaaS analytics app with fabric and want to serve customer1's data to customer1 only and customer2's data to customer2 only, don't you have to deploy a new fabric instance for each customer? #fireemoji

More in 40 mins than I have seen in months of trying to work this out. Finally someone speaking who has a brain bigger than Fabric and can see it as a whole.

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Thanks for watching! Glad you found it useful 👍👍

[@Alan-eb6gp]

Have been trying to understand the emergence of fabric over the last year and how it could benefit my users. What you have done in mins is better than all of the MS attempts to explain it. This shouldn't be a course but plastered on the fabric site. Well done for being so articulate

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Lovely comment, thanks! Glad it helped clarify Fabric for you 🙌🙌

[@musab2025]

Microsoft is terrible at explaining their own product.

[@BabatundeOdofin]

You understood the assignment.. You delivered the presentation flawlessly with unbeatable pace and clarity. You're a legend!!!

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

😂 thanks, glad you enjoyed 🙌🏽

[@gsaem]

This is in all honesty the best Fabric introduction I've seen and I'm going to borrow the structure for my own presentation. ❤‍🔥 (Isn't this a fire emoji btw?)

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Thanks a lot! Glad you found it useful :)

[@EnVideoZone]

Great depth, great detail, with a pleasant and even pace. A flawless masterclass in how to present complex technical information. Thank you Will.

These 38 minutes may have just changed my entire approach to a project. Thank you for doing it!🔥

[@THEBRAINEWAY]

Blown away by the quality of your intro (the full video is excellent but wanted to highlight how i appreciate the effort, time and value to help us) 👑

[@mentalvelcro]

The amount of thinking that's gone into this is unreal... you've aligned the low level with the enterprise level, and the user experience with the value prop, all while keeping true to the solution's structure... not an easy feat. MASSIVE PROPS!!!!

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Thanks a lot 🙌 yes I spent a fair amount of time thinking about how best to communicate it, thanks for recognising that and glad you enjoyed!

[@cipherprime463]

Microsoft, please get guidelines from this guy how to make a presentations easy using Microsoft tools. Thank you so much for making me understand the FABRIC with in 38 minutes. each minute is worth watching and listening.

[@douglasboateng]

Will the simplifier! Thanks again. I remember taking your course on Power BI and that started my journey into deep Power BI analytics. Simplicity and Clarity. Fabrics brings it all together! Thanks for being a powerful resource for the MS BI Stack Community

[@secretnobody6460]

This is just amazing! Could you please soon upload a guided project for beginners who wants to master fabric? i can quite understand the concept and theory now because you explained it so well. now I would like to see a real life scenario where i can also follow you doing the project to get a clearer picture and solidify the knowledge

[@mansoorkhaliq9829]

Your 200+ hours of course work is impressive. Kudos!

[@bithepower9081]

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Glad you enjoyed this one Norya! Thanks for watching 😊

[@top_1_percent]

Simply the best and easiest explanation on MS Fabric. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@lameplanet]

A nice intro, thank you. Another aspect that it would be great to understand is the difference between Fabric features and their standalone equivalents in Azure. Like - what's the difference in capability between Azure ML and Synapse Data Science, or between ADX and Synapse Realtime Analytics etc

[@AhmadAlMokdad-cx7sk]

❤️‍🔥 Really awesome introduction to understand Fabric. Thank you.

[@abhinavjena6260]

I really loved how you structured the topics and presented in a subtle pace for the viewers to understand. Thanks for this video. Looking to go through more of your videos. 🔥🔥

[@amandataylor6092]

🔥🔥🔥 thank you for the explanation of fabric! I’m an IT procurement professional and although I understand business I’m working to learn more about IT innovations as well. I’ll send this to my team as we utilize Microsoft extensively in our organization.

[@agraharafamily5634]

Wow, MS created a solution for problems they raised in the first place with their cloud tools, how innovative. With MS you never run out of work as a Developer (being there for 30 years now). But very good tutorial though, well done.

[@deedytech]

Nice video. Many thanks. FYI, "data activator" is effectively a reverse ETL which isn't a new idea: See eg hightouch, census, segment, etc.

[@LearnMicrosoftFabric]

Thanks! Reverse ETL might be a smaller use case for Data Activator but I wouldn't say it's the main use case. Data Activator is now a part of 'Real-Time Intelligence' - which tells us quite a bit about it's intended use case: monitoring real-time streams for certain conditions and then (automatically) taking action if the condition is met, either notifications or triggering some other process.

[@mariskajanson]

This is amazing, thank you very much. It's clear and good to understand.

Great Video Will. Its interesting that fabric seems to be easier to summarise than the historic product versions were. Ill share this video internally.

Hi Will, I really enjoyed learning this and it’s progressed my understanding of MS Fabric which I’ll be doing the exam by the end of summer. I wanted to ask what software or system did you use to design this presentation? I’d like to create something similar to show my managers on the benefits of Fabric. Thanks for getting back to me mate!
