Adventures in CICD with Azure Synapse
2022TL; DR
In this session we'll look at the pitfalls, prerequisites, and process of setting up a continuous deployment pipeline for your Azure Synapse workspace.
Session Details
In this session we'll look at the pitfalls, prerequisites, and process of setting up a continuous deployment pipeline for your Azure Synapse workspace. In this demo-heavy session we'll set up a YAML pipeline using Azure DevOps to deploy an Azure Synapse workspace resources through a development lifecycle.

Craig Porteous's previous sessions
Zero to Lakehouse in Microsoft Fabric
Fabric is Microsoft's unified software as a service data platform, built around a Data Lakehouse architecture. In this session I'll share an array of data Lakehouse architecture patterns, and demonstrate how you can build a full Data Lakehouse platform without ever touching an Azure resource.
Building a Lakehouse on the Microsoft Intelligent Data Platform
This session session aims to give you that context. We'll look at how spark-based engines work and how we can use them within Synapse Analytics. We'll dig into Delta, the underlying file format that enables the Lakehouse, and take a tour of how the Synapse compute engines interact with it. Finally, we'll draw out our whole Lakehouse architecture
Designing Data Architectures that InfoSec will actually approve
In this session I'll guide you from through a secure reference architecture with Data Factory, Databricks, Data Lake, and Azure Synapse, working together as a secure, fully productionised platform. Each has their own idiosyncrasies, but this session will teach you the options available and the pitfalls to avoid.
Why the Lakehouse?
In this session I'll cover what the Data Lakehouse architecture is, where it fits against existing architectures like a data warehouse, and why you should build one. We'll also cover the underlying technology options to arm you with all of the information you need to plan your next data platform.
