Are you ready for an illuminating exploration of Microsoft Fabric? In this session, we bring together three data professionals to showcase how the power of collaboration and a unified data platform can amplify your organization's data-driven success. Before Fabric, each data professional would typically work with their own tools and capabilities, each with their own strengths, weaknesses, and experiences. With Fabric, this is no longer neccesarily the case. In this joint session, three data professionals will share their unique perspectives on how different roles can thrive within the Fabric ecosystem. The Data Engineer: Meet "Emma", the visionary Data Engineer with an eye for transforming raw data into actionable insights. She will delve into the realm of Notebooks and Spark Jobs, illustrating how she harnesses the capabilities of Fabric to architect data pipelines, drive automation, and ensure data integrity within the Lakehouse. Discover how Emma empowers her team by seamlessly integrating various data sources, all residing in OneLake. The Data Analyst: Introducing "Jenna", the meticulous Data Analyst who excels in the art of harmonizing dataflows and nurturing the vital relationship between data and BI. Witness her unveil the secrets of Dataflows, showcasing the power of low-code solutions and the synergy between Power Query and Fabric. Explore how Jenna's orchestration of data ensures accurate, cleansed, and harmonized insights across the entire organization. The Data Governance Manager: Last but not least, join us on a journey with "Mia", the brilliant Data Governance Manager who ensures that data remains a strategic asset within the organization. With her keen eye for compliance and data integrity, Mia will guide us through the realm of data governance within Microsoft Fabric. Explore how Mia establishes robust data governance frameworks, enforces data privacy regulations, and oversees metadata management to drive responsible and ethical data practices. Witness her expertise in balancing data access controls and democratizing data insights while maintaining regulatory compliance and safeguarding sensitive information. Together, Emma, Jenna and Mia will demonstrate how their unique roles intertwine within Microsoft Fabric, all driven by a shared vision and powered by the comprehensive capabilities of OneLake. Prepare to be inspired as we uncover the synergistic magic that happens when diverse perspectives converge to unlock the true potential of data management.

Data management is a critical component of modern businesses and organizations. With the increasing amount of data being generated and collected by companies, effective data management has become more important than ever before.

In this short session, we will go through the what, how and why of Power BI Datamarts. What is this feature you can find in Power BI Service? How can you use it to model your data, improve control and enable self-service? Why should you use Power BI Datamarts?

Microsoft has launched a lot of servicess in the data and analytics space the last years. And it has become pretty clear that their vision for this space is encompassing and solid.

Power BI Service is providing new solutions and ways to solve challenges. One of those features is Power BI Dataflows. So what is that, and why should you care? In this session, we will take a look at the Power BI Service-specific feature dataflows, and dig into how dataflows can improve the performance of how you consume, create and share business insights. What is the difference between dataflows and Power Query, how can you use dataflows to enable non-technical report developers and are there any AI features you can take advantage of?

Data governance is seen as boring and something you don't really need. But it is in fact the key to success for your data platform. As the amount of data sources, as well as the size of the data from the various sources increases - how can your users know what data is available? Or where to find it and what state it is in? When your users trust the data you deliver, they will use what you develop. Another aspect to that trust is personal identifiable information - can citizens trust that you keep their data safe and respect their privacy? This session will show you how to establish both kinds of trust, using Azure native tooling as well as third-party tools. But most importantly - tips on methodology, routines and people!
