Microsoft Fabric for the Power BI Professional!
This workshop is tailored for Power BI Developers who want to enhance their existing Power BI solutions using Microsoft Fabric components and how each Fabric component takes part in the overall architecture of the analytical solution.
In this workshop, features such as Data Engineering, Data Warehousing, Data Integration, and One Lake will be discussed as their role in a multi-layered architecture solution for Power BI. Attendees will learn how to use Dataflows and data pipelines to build the ETL solution, load the data into staging Lakehouse, apply data engineering scenarios, transform it into Star schema and then load it into a data warehouse, the importance of medallion architecture, the Onelake feature of Shortcut to re-use components and finally the Power BI DirectLake to have a better connection type from Power BI to the underlying data. The concepts will be discussed in detail with many hands-on lab exercises. Reza developed the content of this workshop based on his work with current customer projects, best practices, and experiences.
Attendees will leave this workshop with a ready-to-use plan and an approach to enhance their existing Power BI solution architecture to a multi-layered, easy-to-maintain solution using Microsoft Fabric.
