# Outperform Spark with Python Notebooks in Fabric

Session:
When Microsoft Fabric was released, it came with Apache Spark out of the box. Spark’s ability to work with more programming languages opened up possibilities for creating data-driven and automated lakehouses. On the other hand, Spark’s primary feature to scale out and handle large amounts of data will, in many cases, be over-dimensioned, less performant, and more costly when working with trivial workloads.
With Python Notebooks, we have a better tool for handling metadata, automation, and processing of more trivial workloads, while still having the option to use Spark Notebooks for handling more demanding processing.

We will cover:
* The difference between Python Notebooks and a Single Node Spark cluster, and why Spark Notebooks are more costly and less performant with certain types of workloads.
* When to use Python Notebooks and when to use Spark Notebooks.
* Where to use Python Notebooks in a meta-driven Lakehouse
* A brief introduction to tooling and move workload between Python Notebooks and Spark Notebooks.
* How to avoid overload the Lakehouse tech stack with python technologies.
* Costs

# The Ultimate Power BI Productivity Boost with TMDL and Fabric Studio

Session:
Ready to Revolutionize Your Power BI Development?

Imagine being able to copy entire tables and measures in bulk from one semantic model to another—instantly. What if you could rename measures in bulk, or use a simple find and replace to update logic across all your DAX measures at once? How about creating perspectives or implementing object-level security directly within Power BI Desktop? And the best part? You can publish new DAX measures, add new tables, or modify existing DAX measures and tables without having to re-publish the entire PBIX file.

Sounds like a dream? It’s all possible with TMDL (Tabular Model Definition Language). TMDL is the game-changing Power BI feature we’ve been waiting for. The much-anticipated Power BI “developer mode” is here and ready to supercharge your Power BI development experience. And with Fabric Studio, it’s like magic.

In this session, real-world examples will teach you how TMDL can make your Power BI tasks easier. We’ll show you how to leverage TMDL and Fabric Studio and build your skills to take full advantage of this powerful new feature.
