    • Microsoft Fabric well explained the right way!

    • Very complete to dive in Microsoft Fabric
Format: Paperback
A great resource for any data engineer or data analyst. Good explanations about generic concepts like data lake house, data mesh,ETL, medallion architecture. Besides, authors show the great number of Fabric features, with a big number of examples, code samples and portal screens, covering data ingestion, transformation and analysis activies. You can use this book to prepare for DP-600 or DP-700 exam, in my opinion. ... show more

    • Learn Microsoft Fabric
Format: Paperback
The Definitive Guide to Microsoft Fabric is an excellent resource for anyone looking to understand and use Microsoft Fabric. The content is well organized and clearly presented, making it accessible whether you're just getting started or already have experience with the platform. If you're new to Fabric, you can start on page one and build a solid understanding of the concepts, architecture, and capabilities that make Fabric such a powerful data platform. For more experienced users, the detailed table of contents and extensive index make it easy to jump directly to specific topics, making the book just as valuable as a reference guide. One of the book's strengths is its breadth. It covers the many tools and workloads within Fabric and shows how they can be used to address a wide range of data and analytics challenges. The accompanying GitHub repository also provides code samples that help reinforce key concepts and examples from the book. That said, readers looking for a step-by-step, "learn by doing" tutorial may find that this is not the book's primary focus. While there are useful examples and code throughout, the emphasis is on explaining concepts and capabilities rather than providing hands-on exercises. I also found that some examples required additional effort to get working, particularly in Chapter 11 on AI, where implementation proved more challenging than expected. Overall, these are minor criticisms of what is otherwise an outstanding book. Whether you're beginning your Microsoft Fabric journey or looking for a comprehensive reference to keep on your shelf, The Definitive Guide to Microsoft Fabric is a resource you'll return to again and again. ... show more

Packed with over 300 images, and exhaustively covering all major features of Microsoft Fabric as it exists today, this is the book that can potentially turn anyone into an expert.
