summary

Early-access report on Microsoft Fabric claims a unified data stack that actually reads and writes Delta Lake files, links SQL warehouse, Spark and Power BI without copy steps, and exposes direct lake mode where Power BI loads remote delta into RAM and behaves like import. Fabric shows bursting (serverless extra cores) and an F64 tier that gives free Power BI reader. Tests run TPCH SF100 (600M rows, 22 queries) in ~90s; pipeline demo pulls Australian electricity prices every five minutes. Still preview—utilization metrics are missing so cost/perf for production remains uncertain.
