Fabric Governance - Domains, Workspaces & Lineage
Details
π― The Problem: Your Fabric POC was a success. Now 15 teams want in. Suddenly you have 47 workspaces, no naming convention, random data everywhere, and the CFO asking why the capacity bill tripled.
π‘ This Evening: We'll show you governance patterns that ENABLE teams (not block them). Domains, Workspaces, Capacities, Lineage - the structure that scales.
β±οΈ Save yourself: The governance mess that makes everyone hate the data platform. Get it right from the start.
What you'll learn:
π Workspace Design Patterns - Dev/Test/Prod, medallion, team-based structures, and WHY workspace design impacts everything (permissions, deployments, costs)
ποΈ Domains - Data Mesh principles in Fabric, and WHY domains enable decentralized ownership (Finance owns Finance data, not IT)
β‘ Capacity Management - CU consumption, smoothing, bursting, and WHY capacity planning prevents budget surprises (smoothing saves money!)
π Data Lineage - Impact analysis and dependency tracking, and WHY lineage is non-negotiable for compliance (GDPR, SOX)
Governance Hierarchy: Tenant β Domain (Sales, Finance, HR) β Workspace (Dev, Test, Prod) β Items (Lakehouse, Reports) β Data (Tables, Files)
Who should attend: Fabric administrators, Enterprise architects, Compliance and security teams
