Welcome to **How to mesh in Microsoft Fabric: Deployment and Governance** 👋🏼

1️⃣ **Technical Deployment: Automating and Standardizing Microsoft Fabric Environments**
The first part of this session explores how organizations can establish a scalable and consistent Microsoft Fabric environment by leveraging automation and infrastructure-as-code principles.
We’ll discuss how tools like **Terraform** and **Azure DevOps** enable organizations to streamline the deployment of Fabric workspaces, pipelines, and security configurations. This approach ensures that your environment is not only easy to manage but also adaptable to evolving business needs.
By focusing on automation, we emphasize the importance of creating a robust technical foundation that supports scalability, consistency, and governance across all domains. This is essential for aligning your data architecture with modern best practices.

2️⃣ **Governance and Analysis: Structuring Collaboration for Success**
The second part of the session shifts attention to governance and analysis—critical elements for enabling domain-based collaboration while maintaining centralized oversight.
Microsoft Fabric supports the **data mesh paradigm**, where data ownership is decentralized across domains while adhering to shared governance policies. This modern approach empowers teams to treat data as a product, fostering collaboration and innovation within business-aligned domains.
We’ll explore how organizations can structure their Fabric environments to balance autonomy with oversight, ensuring that teams can manage their data effectively while maintaining alignment with organizational standards. Additionally, we’ll highlight how self-service analytics tools like Power BI can empower business users to derive actionable insights without compromising governance or security.
