Data Cleansing: Dataflow Gen1 vs Dataflow Gen2 vs Notebook?
As the subject suggested, which one should I use?
Which one is cheaper and faster?
I read from https://www.fourmoo.com/2024/01/25/microsoft-fabric-comparing-dataflow-gen2-vs-notebook-on-costs-and-usability/
that using code-based is better, but is that true?

Thank you for your answer.
My data is quite complex but not so big (2GB at most). So, I probably use Notebook then.
However, my question on cost optimization is still unknown.
