We are excited to invite you to our upcoming WIE Wednesday event featuring two remarkable Data Engineers from Avanade, Dazana Hasan and Prajna Dash. Join us for an insightful session where they will share their career journeys, experiences in consulting, and introduce you to one of Microsoft's hot technologies, Fabric.
Microsoft Fabric is a user-friendly platform that helps you manage and analyze data from different sources in one place, making it easier to create reports and gain insights. It simplifies the process of loading, normalizing, and visualizing data, allowing both technical and non-technical users to collaborate and make data-driven decisions efficiently. During this session, Dazana and Prajna will demonstrate how to load data into Fabric Lakehouse, analyze it in a Spark notebook, and create a prediction model for flight delays. They will also show how to build a Power BI report from the data, highlighting Fabric's flexibility in performing analysis, data preparation, and visualization tasks on a single platform.
