Power BI Apps have been the preferred way to share content with consumers for many organisations and is usually the approach we recommend.

Autumn is a magical time for reflection, and as I strolled through the wet Brighton city streets, I thought about all the different businesses I have spoken to who are grappling with operational inefficiencies. Over a cup of coffee, I pondered how I’d recently got off a call with a guy who had just had the ominous “AI” badge stuck to their job description, “We need to use AI, now John.” He mentioned how introducing “AI” into business operations seemed daunting. He was eager to leverage technology to streamline processes and make data-driven decisions, but didn’t know where to start.

Microsoft Ignite 2024 is currently taking place in Chicago from November 19th to 21st. As always, the Data and AI community is eagerly anticipating the latest announcements from Microsoft. With FabCon Europe having taken place less than two months ago, there was some scepticism about Microsoft’s ability to unveil any major new Fabric features. However, they still had a couple of aces up their sleeve, ready to be revealed at just the right moment.

The preview of the Terraform provider for Microsoft Fabric was announced at FabConEurope and it was for sure one of my favourite announcements. Using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is a must have for any organisation aiming to effectively and efficiently manage their cloud resources. Organisations can leverage Terraform capabilities to, among others, enhance their governance and compliance processes, automate complex deployments or even quickly setup their infrastructure. In this blog I’ll share how to use the new provider using VSCode and highlight some of the current limitations.

The European Microsoft Fabric Conference was held in Stockholm between the 24th and 27th September and for some, it was the first opportunity to hear about the product and interact directly with the Fabric Product Team. Telefónica Tech was a Silver sponsor and it was a great opportunity to meet likeminded professionals, partners and current and potential future customers. Throughout the 4 days, we had the opportunity to speak with a lot of Fabric enthusiasts and to hear directly from the senior product team what lies ahead. In this blog I’ll highlight what were my favourite announcements (and one or other disappointment), however, you can check out the full list here and here.
