Microsoft Fabric Blog explains how Fabric SQL developers can move from Azure Data Studio to VS Code, keeping SQL Database Projects and adopting a Git-based workflow with pull requests, schema compare, publish script previews, and optional GitHub Copilot assistance in the MSSQL extension.
Microsoft Fabric Blog explains how Microsoft Fabric pipelines are shifting from classic ETL into end-to-end workflow orchestration, including long-running jobs, better observability, and human approval steps via the new Approval activity (preview) in Fabric Data Factory.
Microsoft Fabric Blog summarizes the April 2026 Fabric release, covering platform UX updates, VS Code-based workspace and notebook workflows, notebook retry policies, MLflow-based MLOps improvements, Data Warehouse enhancements like COPY INTO for JSONL, and Real-Time Intelligence updates including Eventstream observability and Eventhouse remote MCP.
Microsoft Fabric Blog introduces workspace monitoring (Preview) for Fabric Eventstreams, which creates a managed monitoring Eventhouse with KQL-queryable tables for node status, throughput metrics, and error metrics so teams can troubleshoot streaming pipelines and build their own dashboards and alerts.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces the GA release of the Fabric Eventstreams SQL operator, focusing on code-first SQL transformations for real-time pipelines, including multi-destination fan-out, built-in testing, and event-time processing for late and out-of-order data.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces a preview feature that mirrors a Dremio Iceberg catalog into OneLake using shortcuts for a zero-copy approach, so Fabric workloads can query Dremio-managed tables without duplicating data or building ETL pipelines.
stclarke shares a LinkedIn post about Cricket Australia’s Live app, highlighting how Azure OpenAI and Azure Cosmos DB power “AI Insights” that let fans explore match context, player stats, and cricket history with fast, personalized responses.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces GA support for nested folders in OneLake shortcut transformations, enabling recursive discovery and incremental processing of structured files (CSV, Parquet, JSON) across subfolders and writing results into Delta tables while preserving directory structure and preventing shortcut cycles.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces a preview feature for OneLake: resource instance rules, which let Fabric workspace admins allow inbound access from specific Azure resource identities (ARM IDs) instead of relying on IP allowlists, while still working alongside Private Link and IP firewall rules.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces general availability of cross-workspace logging for MLflow in Microsoft Fabric, enabling teams to promote experiments and registered models across Dev/Test/Prod workspaces using standard MLflow APIs, with support for enterprise network controls like Outbound Access Protection and managed private endpoints.
Aseem Datar announces expanded preview access for Microsoft Discovery, an Azure-based agentic AI platform for R&D. The post explains how Discovery combines agent orchestration, graph-based knowledge, and HPC to run iterative “discovery loops,” and shares early customer examples in materials science, oncology research, engineering simulation, and chip design.
Nikola Zagorac explains how SQL Server 2025/Azure SQL Change Event Streaming (CES) can push row-level change events (in CloudEvents JSON) directly into Microsoft Fabric Eventstream via an Event Hubs–compatible custom endpoint, enabling near-real-time analytics and downstream routing in Fabric Real-Time Intelligence.
Abhishek Narain announces the general availability of workspace outbound access protection (OAP) for Microsoft Fabric Data Factory workloads, explaining how workspace admins can restrict outbound connections to trusted endpoints to improve security, prevent data exfiltration, and support compliance needs.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces a preview of Customer-Managed Keys (CMK) for Fabric Eventhouse, letting customers manage their own encryption keys to meet compliance and regulatory requirements and add an extra layer of protection for data stored in Eventhouse.
Microsoft Fabric Blog explains how Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI assistants and agents (including GitHub Copilot and Copilot Studio) to discover and operate Microsoft Fabric via new Local (GA) and Remote (preview) MCP servers, covering OneLake operations, API-grounded code generation, and security controls like Entra ID, RBAC, and audit logs.
Microsoft Fabric Blog announces a Preview feature that adds a dbt job activity to Microsoft Fabric pipelines, letting teams orchestrate dbt transformations with pipeline dependencies, parameters, notifications, and run monitoring in one place.
Microsoft Fabric Blog explains two pragmatic updates to a Fabric-based agentic app reference implementation: script-driven deployment using Microsoft Fabric REST APIs and an optional read-only Fabric Data Agent for governed data Q&A, aimed at safer, more repeatable production operations.
Microsoft Fabric Blog explains how Microsoft Fabric Eventstream (Real-Time Intelligence) handles inbound and outbound connectivity and how to pick between managed private endpoints, tenant/workspace private links, and streaming connector VNet injection to secure streaming sources in private networks.
Microsoft Fabric Blog introduces the generally available OneLake MCP tools, showing how an AI agent can discover Fabric items, inspect schemas, map OneLake storage, and assess mirrored-database health through a single natural-language conversation (no code or portal clicks).
