Blazing-Fast Harmonized Analytics with OneLake and Direct Lake

With OneLake at its core, Microsoft Fabric unifies data disciplines and enhances collaboration across all data professionals. OneLake ties together all the tools, experiences, and technologies – and by doing so, the people working in it. It's never simpler to quickly share important work with the right coworkers!

On top of that, we have Direct Lake—the most ambitious data processing engine yet—capable of instantly rendering Power BI datasets with real-time updates to its data.

With Direct Lake, users can access live data—directly from their Power BI reports—without limiting their DAX, or worrying about performance degradation. It combines the best of all worlds: the power of VertiPaq, DirectQuery, and the Delta Lake Parquet file format.

What About Our Current Data Platform?

From a Power BI perspective, everything we know and love from Power BI will continue as usual—except our toolbox just expanded overnight with new capabilities. New tools that any data professional, well-versed in Azure Synapse Analytics, will recognize and be able to work with immediately.

Microsoft Fabric is not here to replace either Power BI Pro, PPU, Premium, and Azure Synapse will continue running in their current form—enhanced by the new Microsoft Fabric capabilities.
