Microsoft Fabric: How to set it up for your organization

This blog is the fourth post in a series around Microsoft Fabric, a relatively new Software-as-a-Service solution for anything concerning data platforms and data warehouses. In the previous blog posts, we explained the use of Link to Microsoft Fabric to seamlessly integrate Microsoft Dataverse into Fabric, we discussed security options in Security Considerations when using Microsoft Fabric and we dived into the concept of CI/CD with Fabric.

In this blog post we are going to make use of the info gathered during all previous blog posts and describe the different architectural decisions you need to make for your organization and your environment. We are going to take a top-down approach and start with the Organization-Level and Domains, from there we will go into more detail with Workspaces, Capacities, and Licenses. Finally, we will talk about Governance for Fabric. During each step of the way we will use as an example a Data Warehouse solution, one of the most requested solutions with our customers.

In this blog post we will have a look in how you can set up your Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment when using Microsoft Fabric, what the different options are for your CI/CD including pro’s/cons and also specific things you need to be aware off before making your final decision on your CI/CD setup and Fabric components you will use. In the next blog post we will talk more about how setup Fabric Workspaces for your solution and what you need to consider over there.

Security Considerations when using Microsoft Fabric

At Twyzer we recently deployed one of the first Microsoft Fabric Data Warehouse solutions at one of our customers in the Netherlands into production. This customer is now making use of Dynamics 365 (Finance and Operations) in combination with a Fabric Data Warehouse solution by using the recently introduced ‘Microsoft Dataverse direct link to Fabric’ option. There are some things we learned along the way with using the Link to Microsoft Fabric option in Dataverse which we will address in this blog.
