Microsoft Fabric

This article outlines Microsoft Fabric integration in the OvalEdge application, covering supported Fabric components, integration methods, and upcoming connector support. It provides clarity on current support, integration approaches, and configuration requirements for supported components.

It provides a structured view of how Microsoft Fabric assets can be integrated using existing and dedicated OvalEdge connectors. The objective is to ensure consistent metadata management and lineage visibility across supported Fabric components.

What is Microsoft Fabric

Microsoft Fabric is a unified, SaaS-based analytics platform that enables end-to-end data workflows, including ingestion, transformation, processing, analytics, and reporting within a single environment.

Fabric consolidates multiple analytics experiences, such as Data Engineering, Data Factory, Data Science, Real-Time Intelligence, Data Warehouse, Databases, and Power BI, into a shared platform operating on a common compute and storage foundation.

Microsoft Fabric operates on a shared data model, enabling cross-workload data access without duplication.

Configuration and Setup

Connector configuration follows standard procedures using the platform’s connector framework.
