    Are you looking to build a new standalone data catalog in Fabric? then you choose Microsoft Purview. 

    If you want to migrate or mirror your existing azure databricks unity catalog tables into Fabric then you can create a mirror of your azure databricks env. please checkout the below blog

    Hi arkiboys2 ,

     

    Thanks for the reply from tharunkumarRTK .

     

    I haven't actually worked with Unity Catalog, but I understand that it's like a “housekeeper” for your data. It helps unify the management and protection of data across different Databricks workspaces. It can be used to set who has access to what data, record who uses what data, and make it easy to find and label data.

     

    In Fabric, you can use data pipelines and data warehouses to manage data workflows.

     

    For more information you can refer to this document:

  • Hi,

    I am basically trying to see if there is a replacement in microsoft fabric/purview, etc. to replace our existing databricks and databricks unity catalog.

    thank you
