π― The Problem: Your company has millions invested in Azure Data Factory, Databricks, and Cosmos DB. Now leadership wants Fabric. Do you throw everything away? Migrate? Run both?
π‘ This Evening: We’ll show you how Fabric integrates WITH your existing Azure investments - not against them. Hybrid architectures are powerful, and OneLake is the bridge.
β±οΈ Save yourself: The pain of “rip and replace.” Most Fabric success stories COMBINE services, not replace them.
What you’ll learn#
- π OneLake Deep Dive β The universal data lake behind Fabric, and WHY OneLake uses ADLS Gen2 protocols
- π Azure Data Factory + Fabric β When to use ADF vs Fabric Pipelines, and WHY ADF still makes sense for complex hybrid scenarios
- β‘ Azure Databricks + Fabric β Unity Catalog + OneLake integration, and WHY Databricks users should care about Fabric
- π Cosmos DB Mirroring β NoSQL data in your analytics platform, and WHY mirroring beats ETL for Cosmos
