DevOps for Fabric - Git & Deployment Pipelines

🎯 The Problem: Someone overwrote the production report. Again. No one knows what changed. There’s no way to roll back. Manual deployments at 11 PM on Friday - because that’s when “no one is using the system.”

💡 This Evening: We’ll bring professional DevOps to Fabric. Git integration, deployment pipelines, variable libraries - the practices that make BI enterprise-ready.

⏱️ Save yourself: The 3 AM “we broke production” calls. Proper CI/CD means confident deployments, every time.

What you’ll learn

#

• 🏷️ Sensitivity Labels – Data classification and protection, and WHY labels flow with the data, not the container
• 🔐 Microsoft Purview – Unified governance across Azure and Fabric, and WHY Purview is the governance control plane
• 📂 Git Integration – Source control for Fabric items, and WHY Git enables collaboration and rollback
• 🚀 Deployment Pipelines – Dev → Test → Prod promotion, and WHY pipelines beat manual deployments
• 📋 Variable Libraries – Environment-specific configurations, and WHY hardcoded values kill maintainability
