What is Microsoft Fabric - and Why It Matters to Your Business
-
Microsoft Fabric brings together everything you need – data engineering, data science, real-time analytics, data warehousing, and business intelligence – in one seamless SaaS package. No more cobbling together different tools like separate Azure Data Factory pipelines or managing complex Azure Synapse environments. Fabric cuts through complexity and gets you insights faster. It includes familiar components like Power BI and allows interaction with semantic models.
-
For businesses, this means making smarter decisions with AI support, without managing complicated systems. Your teams, from data professionals to business analysts, can work together on trusted data directly in familiar Microsoft 365 apps like Excel, Teams, and Power BI. The Fabric platform provides a central space with different fabric items and fabric workloads accessible within a fabric workspace.
