See all- Building Real Data Solutions with Real-Time Intelligence in FabricLink visible for attendees
Real-Time Intelligence in Microsoft Fabric helps you turn streaming data into actionable insights. In this session, you will learn how to connect event sources, process data in motion, and act on signals without complex infrastructure.
We will introduce the Real-Time hub, show how to ingest data using Eventstreams, and demonstrate how to store and query events in Eventhouse using KQL. You will also see how to create a Real-Time Dashboard for live monitoring and use Activator to trigger automated actions when conditions are met.
The session includes a practical demo and resources to help you apply these patterns in your hackathon project or production scenarios.
What you will learn:
- How to ingest and route events with Eventstreams
- How to store and query data in Eventhouse using KQL
- How to build dashboards and trigger actions with Activator

Modern apps need a fast operational store and a simple path to analytics and AI. Fabric Databases give you both inside Microsoft Fabric.
You will see how SQL database in Fabric provides a developer‑friendly relational database based on the Azure SQL Database engine, while automatically making your data available in OneLake for analytics without extra pipelines. This lets you power notebooks, BI, and real‑time scenarios from the same operational data.
We will also introduce Cosmos DB in Fabric, an AI‑optimized NoSQL database that supports vector indexing and hybrid search for intelligent application experiences. You will learn when to use each database, how automatic replication to OneLake works, and how to expose data to applications using familiar tools and a GraphQL endpoint pattern.
The demo shows a small app that writes to a Fabric database, lights up analytics in Fabric, and surfaces AI features for a complete, end‑to‑end workflow.
What you will learn
- When to choose SQL database in Fabric for relational workloads versus Cosmos DB in Fabric for semi‑structured data and AI features like vector and hybrid search.
- How automatic replication to OneLake enables analytics and BI on operational data without building ETL first.
- How to connect your app and expose data using standard connection strings and a GraphQL pattern for modern APIs
