Fabric vs Azure Synapse Analytics

is Fabric a replacement for Azure Synapse Analytics? If we are using Fabric, why do we still need Azure Synapse Analytics ?

    Hi tan_thiamhuat,

    Thanks for actively participating in MS Fabric community support

     

    Fabric runs on OneLake, a single data lake across the organization (similar to OneDrive for files), and provides a SaaS experience across all personas—data engineers, analysts, scientists, and business users.

     

    learn more about difference between synapse and Fabric:

    • Use Synapse where deep integration, fine-tuned control, or legacy support is needed.

    • Use Fabric for modern, unified analytics with easier governance, low-code/no-code capabilities, and better M365 integration.

     

     

     

    Thanks,

    Prashanth Are
