In the first post in this series – a post titled Fabric Data Factory Design Pattern – Basic Parent-Child – I demonstrated one way to build a basic parent-child design pattern in Fabric Data Factory by calling one pipeline (child) from another pipeline (parent). In the second post, titled Fabric Data Factory Design Pattern – Parent-Child with Parameters,… READ MORE
In any programming environment, handling unreliable processes—whether due to API rate limiting, network instability, or transient failures—can be a significant challenge. This is not exclusive to Spark but applies to distributed systems and programming languages across the board. In this post, we’ll focus on Python (since I’m a PySpark developer) and explore how to make… READ MORE
Power BI licensing has certainly evolved over the years, and with so many changes, it’s no wonder questions keep coming up. Below are a few that I have heard and seen: I know, it’s a lot – but don’t worry. My goal with this blog is to tackle as much as I can. I have… READ MORE

How do you develop a python library in Microsoft Fabric while maintaining the full ability to test code prior to packaging? This topic is something that I’ve been challenged with for the last year and the internet, community, ChatGPT, etc., no once is talking about it, therefore, for the longest time I didn’t even think… READ MORE
Context Recently I have been working a lot with the Power BI / Fabric REST APIs to perform some tasks as Fabric Administrator, such as to automate the creation of workspaces, assign users / Microsoft Entra ID groups to workspaces, assign Fabric capacity to workspaces and so on. I will create a series of posts… READ MORE
Microsoft Fabric uses a data lakehouse architecture, which means it does not use a relational data warehouse (with its relational engine and relational storage) and instead uses only a data lake to store data. Data is stored in Delta lake format so that the data lake acquires relational data warehouse-like features (check out my book that goes into much detail… READ MORE
After the release in May, Microsoft Fabric promises to make everything easier with their One Governance and Administration approach. What do they mean by that?
