Data Analytics

Microsoft Fabric, unified data and AI platform natively built on the Microsoft Azure Cloud.

Accelerate data integration, analytics, and insights across your business — all in one seamless, cost-effective solution.

Introduction

The data landscape continues to evolve — driven by the need for flexibility, scalability, and real-time insights. Traditional approaches to data warehousing and analytics struggle to keep up with today’s volume, variety, and velocity of data.

Historically, organisations relied on relational databases like SQL Server, Oracle, or Postgres to build data warehouses or datamarts. But as data has grown in scale and complexity — with streaming sources, IoT, AI workloads, and more — these legacy systems often become bottlenecks. Scaling them becomes expensive and inefficient.

Microsoft Fabric changes the game.

Fabric brings a modern approach where compute and storage are decoupled, and all analytics workloads — data engineering, science, real-time analytics, and BI — run on a single unified platform with shared governance and AI integration.

You no longer need to move data between disconnected systems or manage infrastructure complexity. With OneLake as your universal data store, and pay-as-you-go pricing, you can process data of any size or type, from any source, and deliver insights faster — all within one trusted Microsoft ecosystem.

Unified Platform

Microsoft Fabric brings together the best of data lakes and data warehouses in a single, integrated platform — enabling you to handle all your data, analytics, and AI needs without the complexity of managing separate tools.

At the heart of Fabric is OneLake, a unified data lake built into the platform. It stores structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data in an open, governed, and scalable way. With Direct Lake mode, Power BI can query data directly from OneLake — without the need for duplication or data movement.

Fabric applies a universal security and governance model across all workloads — whether you’re building pipelines, running real-time analytics, training ML models, or building dashboards — all within a single environment.

By removing silos and bringing compute to the data, Microsoft Fabric delivers the scalability of a lake and the performance of a warehouse — with simplicity and cost-efficiency built in.

Microsoft Fabric on Azure

Microsoft Fabric is deeply integrated into the Azure ecosystem — delivering a seamless, end-to-end experience for building and managing your modern data estate.

As a fully managed SaaS solution built by Microsoft, Fabric natively connects with services like Azure Data Lake, Azure Synapse, Microsoft Purview, Power BI, and Microsoft 365. This tight integration removes the friction between tools and enables your teams to work faster, with consistent security and governance across the stack.

Because Fabric is part of the broader Microsoft platform, you benefit from simplified authentication, unified billing, shared capacity, and enterprise-grade scalability — all within the trusted Azure environment.

Key Features of Databricks on Azure

Single Sign On

Use Azure Active Directory (AAD) and Single Sign-On (SSO) to manage secure, seamless access to Fabric resources across your organisation.

Private Networking

Run Fabric workloads in a secure, private network with support for Azure Private Link and Private Endpoints, ensuring full data path isolation across services.

Restrict Public Access

Control access to Fabric experiences using Azure networking controls. Limit exposure with IP restrictions, Private DNS zones, and firewall rules.

Data Exfiltration Protection

Ensure all data movement in Fabric adheres to strict security protocols. Combine Fabric with Azure Firewall to prevent unauthorised data egress.

Secrets Management

Secure credentials, tokens, and secrets using native integration with Azure Key Vault — accessible directly from Fabric pipelines and notebooks.

Data Lake Storage

Fabric uses OneLake as the unified storage foundation for all workloads. Built on top of Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, OneLake enables open, scalable, and governed data access across the platform.

Azure Synapse

Fabric merges capabilities from Synapse Analytics, including SQL and Spark engines, into a single unified experience for analytics, data science, and BI.

IoT Hub

Ingest and process real-time data from Azure IoT Hub, Event Hubs, and other sources using Fabric’s Real-Time Analytics workload — purpose-built for high-throughput streaming.

Data Governance with Purview

Fabric connects natively to Microsoft Purview, allowing you to classify, trace, and govern data lineage across your entire environment — from source to insight.

How we can help

Deployment

We can design and deploy your Microsoft Fabric environment across multiple Azure tenants or environments (DEV, TEST, PROD) — fully secured and aligned with your data governance model.

Data Engineering

Need help ingesting, transforming, or modelling data within Fabric? We support dataflows, notebooks, and pipelines to prepare data for reporting, machine learning, and AI use cases.

DevOps

Fabric integrates with Git and CI/CD pipelines. We can help you implement source control, workspace deployment strategies, and automated promotion across environments using Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions.

Data Integration & Onboarding

Starting a greenfield Fabric project? We’ll help you from initial setup through ingestion, modelling, workspace configuration, and embedded Power BI delivery — fully aligned with Microsoft’s best practices.

Security & Secrets Management

Fabric supports Private Link, Azure Key Vault integration, and Microsoft Purview for end-to-end security. We’ll help you build a secure, governed platform with our Microsoft Fabric Accelerator.

Data Lake Storage

We’ll help you design your OneLake storage strategy, manage performance and cost through Delta optimisations, and ensure your data is well-partitioned for both analytical and real-time workloads.
