Scrape currency data from Hurriyet/Doviz with Python BeautifulSoup and store it in Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse or Warehouse step by step.

This guide walks you through building a front-end application using React, Apollo Client, and TypeScript, integrated with a GraphQL API hosted in Microsoft Fabric. It highlights how to integrate and configure useful local tools like auto-completion and code generation, focusing on delivering an intuitive and seamless developer experience with GraphQL.

What happens when a person leaves organisation or project who had created fabric items and how to take ownership

Many releases and tools within a single platform are engaging both technical users (data engineers, data scientists, or data analysts) as well as end users. Fabric brought a unification of stakeholders into one shared space. That said, it doesn’t mean we have to use all the tools it offers.

If we already have an excellent data cleaning, transformation, or processing workflow using the very popular Databricks, we can keep using it. Fabric can be adopted or integrated in many ways.

Fabric brings us a next-generation lake storage system using an open data format. This means it allows us to use the most popular data file types for storage, and its file system works with conventional open-source structures. In other words, we can connect to our storage using tools capable of reading from it. We've also shown a bit about Fabric Notebooks and how they enhance the development experience.

In this simple tip, we’ll look at how to read from and write to our Fabric Lakehouse using Databricks.

Microsoft Fabric revolutionizes data architecture by offering a unified platform that integrates Power BI, data science, real-time analytics, and more. At the heart of this ecosystem is the Lakehouse, a powerful, flexible, and scalable storage layer tailored for modern data engineering workflows.

In this article, we explore how Lakehouses work in Microsoft Fabric, how to set one up, and how they serve as the foundation for managing both files and structured data—all without the traditional complexity of data platforms.

Microsoft Fabric is a powerful data platform that brings together data movement, transformation, and analytics in one unified environment. One of the core workflows in Fabric involves ingesting, exploring, transforming, and preparing data for analysis. This article provides an overview of how to work with data in Microsoft Fabric—starting from ingestion and ending with clean, ready-to-use datasets.

💡Ever wondered how to bring AI into your data engineering workflows in Microsoft Fabric?

In my latest hands-on project, I show how to automate Sentiment Analysis on customer feedback using:

• Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse

• PySpark notebooks

• Azure OpenAI (GPT-4)

• Fabric Data Pipelines

• Power BI for real-time insights

This solution is fully integrated, no external services required, and takes just 10 minutes to set up.

Simplify analytics with Spark Connector for Microsoft Fabric Data Warehouse: seamlessly access Fabric Warehouse via a secure Spark API.

In my last article of this series, I covered on how to load csv files in a lakehouse automatically in MS Fabric. In this article, I am going to discuss how we can find and fix errors with notebooks easily. 

OneLake is a unified storage system in Microsoft Fabric that eliminates data silos by storing all data in a single location. Now, we’re going to discuss Direct Lake, a new way Power BI interacts with this storage for faster performance and efficiency.

A Guide to Working with Lakehouses in Microsoft Fabric

This guide explores the data engineering experience in Microsoft Fabric, focusing specifically on Lakehouses. This guide takes a hands-on approach, demonstrating how to work with Lakehouses and manage data effectively.

Downloadable Files 

In my last newsletter on LinkedIn, I explained how to export AdventureWorks2022 tables to csv files. If you don’t want to generate them, you can get them, as stated in the last post (after my edit in which I realized I made a mistake). My actual blog kayondata.com is currently being moved to another place, hence not updated at the moment.

CSV files are still very common, so I am using this approach to showcase some tricks and to exercise some data engineering stuff.
