I'm experiencing an issue with long connection times when triggering a notebook within a pipeline in Microsoft Fabric. When running the notebook normally, the connection time is relatively fast after the initial connection is established. However, when the notebook is triggered through a pipeline, a new connection is established every time, which leads to significantly longer connection times.
I have tried using a session tag, but the connection time has not improved. Is there any way to keep the connection to a notebook always open? Or is there a way for the pipeline to connect to the same notebook connection repeatedly to improve the execution speed?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I don't. I don't want to suggest something that costs you lots of money.

That would be much worse for you as you would pay dearly in CUs for keeping notebook sessions open.
You're right. Do you have any suggestions for a short connection time ?
I don't. I don't want to suggest something that costs you lots of money.
@lbendlin Hi, do you have a different solution? I still have this problem sometimes. Connection time takes too long.
