Microsoft Fabric Platform Governance - Where To Start
Proposed session for SQLBits 2026TL; DR
Explore the administration of Microsoft Fabric, focusing on capacities, domains, data products, and workspaces. Learn about data mesh concepts, aligning governance standards, and how to effectively shift from PaaS to SaaS for informed decision-making.
Session Details
In this session, we will explore the administration of Microsoft Fabric, with a focus on the organisation and management of data storage/compute through the configuration of capacities, domains, data products, environments and workspaces. We will discuss the application of data mesh and data fabric concepts in the context of Microsoft Fabric capabilities, including organising data products for effective delivery to business users. Also, considering how Microsoft Fabric compares to the practices and technical standards we’ve applied in Microsoft Azure over the years, making that shift from PaaS to SaaS, in theory and maybe in practical.
Additionally, we will explore how to use domains and separate workspaces to serve reports to business users, providing them with the information they need to make informed decisions. Aligning industry governance standards to Microsoft Fabric features and access controls. Join us to learn how to effectively administer Microsoft Fabric beyond the simple Workspaces inherited from Power BI
