(IN-PERSON) Fabric CI/CD & Intro to Fabric Data Pipelines
**This is an In-Person Evening Session**
Detailed information and registration can be found here :
https://dataminds.be/fabric-cicd-intro-to-fabric-data-pipelines-in-person-ae/
### Fabric CI/CD
**Speaker**: Oliver De Vijt
In Microsoft Fabric, deploying all items efficiently across environments requires a robust CI/CD strategy. While Fabric’s built-in deployment pipelines offer a no-code approach for basic promotion between workspaces, they lack flexibility, automation capabilities, and testing.
In this session, we’ll dive deep into Fabric CI/CD practices, leveraging Git integration, the Fabric REST APIs, and the fabric-cicd Python library to automate the deployment of Fabric items such as semantic models, notebooks, dataflows, and reports. You’ll see how to design YAML-based Azure DevOps pipelines that deploy from source control into your Fabric development, test, and production workspaces, and even include steps to run and validate your models using Tabular Editor.
By the end of this session, you’ll understand how to implement your own end-to-end CI/CD framework for Microsoft Fabric, even in Power BI Pro environments, using entirely free and open-source tools.
### Intro to Fabric (Data) Pipelines
**Speakers**: Koen Verbeeck
Fabric Pipelines, formerly known as Fabric Data Pipelines, is the low-code ELT (extract-load-transform) solution in Microsoft Fabric.
With this tool, you can orchestrate various activities, such as reading data from various data sources, executing Spark notebooks, running SQL statements on your warehouse and so on.
In the wider Azure Data Platform, Fabric Pipelines are a close sibling of Azure Data Factory and Synapse Pipelines.
In this session, we’ll cover the following topics:
* Intro to the various concepts of Fabric Pipelines (activities, connections, parameters, variables etc)
* What are the differences with ADF and Synapse Pipelines?
* Tips & tricks
After the session, you’ll be able to start your own data engineering journey with Fabric Pipelines in Microsoft Fabric.
Knowledge of general ETL concepts are a plus when attending this presentation.

Communicate & Lead with Confidence!
Are you scared of speaking in public? Nervous about that Best Man speech? Worried about making presentations at work? Or just wanting to gain self-confidence? Then you've come to the right place!
Since 2005, Claddagh Toastmasters of Brussels has been helping people of all nationalities in Brussels to improve their communication and leadership skills. We aim to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every member has the opportunity to develop at their own pace, which in turn fosters self-confidence and personal growth.
How does it work?
We have a ‘learn by doing’ approach. Our members present speeches to develop a variety of public speaking skills, and also carry out a variety of other meeting roles to practice skills such as listening and giving feedback. Each member works at their own pace – some people like to throw themselves into giving speeches straight away, while others prefer to spend some time attending meetings and carrying out smaller roles to build up their confidence.
Claddagh Toastmaster Members are now able to participate in the international educational programme called Pathways tailor made to meet the needs of the member.

**A MESSAGE FOR NEWCOMERS:**
*In the three years of hosting this coffee group, I have met many people who struggle with anxieties when coming to an event for the first time. Sometimes, it took them more than one attempt before being able to join.*
*Occasionally, people reach out to me before the event, and I have always been grateful for that as it offers the opportunity to communicate with each other and to find the best and most gentle way for that person to join the group.*
*I would like to encourage everyone who struggles with this to contact me before. It would really be too bad if you can't join us, as it mostly gets better the second or third time you come.*
*In addition to that, if you arrive and notice any signs of nervousness or fear, you can always let me know right then.*
**THANK YOU AND SEE YOU ALL ON Saturday!**
Soignies - Mons (24 km)
For those who are still in Brussels the last weekend before Christmas, I propose a somewhat different hike with not one, but two Christmas markets to visit!
We will start the hike in the little town of Soignies, best known for its quarries where the famous "pierre bleue" is cut. After about 2 hours we will reach the Chateau de Thieusies, where this weekend the artisanal Christmas market "Chemins de Creation" is held. We will stop for about 1 to 1.5h, depending on how much there is to do. I assume there will also be food, but I can't guarantee, as I've never been there (i.e. bring something for lunch to be on the safe side).
From there we'll continue the hike for about another 3 hours to Mons, with its Christmas market taking place on the Grand Place and some other locations, so plenty of opportunities for glühwein, food or whatever reward you feel you deserve at that point ;-)
As the number of participants is limited, it is important that you manage your registration responsibly: only sign up if you really intend to come and cancel as soon as you know you can’t (this also goes for people on the waiting list!).
We will try to keep close to an average speed of about 5 km/h. We will walk mainly on unpaved roads. I’ve not tested this track beforehand, so it’s possible that there are some mistakes in the planning (i.e. it may become longer ;-).
●●You can find the gpx track here:
**Wikilocs:** https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/soignies-mons-244040667
**Komoot**: https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2704055934?share_token=aLqj7pOmFh44XD5yKgCnU9wcjeZ9EkTo5q0phzHp1u5yxt9oFe&ref=wtd
●●Meeting point:
We meet at 9h30 in the main hall of Gare Central, in front of Starbucks, and take the train at 9.48 (IC3730 to Mons). We arrive in Soignies at 10.22.
●● Train tickets:
BXL-Soignies 5.70€ (3.40€ with Train+), Mons-BXL 8.30€ (5.00€ with Train+)
●● Back to Brussels:
From Mons there is a train back every hour, at XX.20 (53 min to Gare Central)
●● Specifics:
Distance: ca 24 km
Elevation gain: almost nothing
Net walking time: ca 5 h
Weather forecast: quite grey and cool, maybe some rain
In the unlikely case of too bad weather, we may cancel a hike, even few hours before the event. If this must happen, we will of course update the Meetup website and send out an email to those registered. So it is important to have access to either the Meetup.com website and/or your emails.
●● What to bring:
* Comfortable hiking clothes &shoes (waterproof unless you don't mind wet feet)
* rain gear
* water and drink for the breaks
* Compeed for blisters
* some small money for drinks
●● Basic rules:
Please RSVP only if you really intend to come. And if your plans change, update your RSVP asap, even hours before the walk. This is basic courtesy towards others. Repeated late cancellations are not well considered (at all). No-shows are even worse.
Do not show up for a hike unless you are on the “going” list.
●● Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability:
You are responsible for yourself and should be fit enough if you want to take part. As the participation in the events is strictly voluntary and you freely choose to join, it is the responsibility of individuals participating to ensure that they are fit enough and have adequate coverage to protect themselves. By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organisers from any responsibility and liability.
Meet and make new friends in Brussels.
Making new friends in a new city doesn’t need to be a struggle at all.
Riding Foret De Soigne
!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ ALL OF THIS - MANDATORY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If it is raining at or close to start time consider the ride cancelled. Common sense prevails.
Ride length is generally about 35 kms at a pace of 18 kph with stops as needed so people catch up. We are advanced in terms of fitness and speed. We do have occasional beginner rides too.
(http://redirect.viglink.com?key=bbb516d91daee20498798694a42dd559&u=https%3A//goo.gl/maps/qKG78wnW2dk)
Please bring:
A MOUNTAIN BIKE ! This is important. NO hybrids or road bikes - they won’t make it where we ride. The club is a MOUNTAIN BIKE club. E-Bikes are discouraged – we are trying to get some exercise 😊
A HELMET - MANDATORY ! No helmet = no ride with us. WEAR A HELMET !!!!!! And no, I don't care if you drove 2 hours and forgot your helmet !
Bring some water and a snack.
A spare tube.
DON'T BRING: A bike that is going to fall apart. Brakes need to brake, tires need to be properly inflated. Shifters need to shift ! The time to confirm this is a few days BEFORE the ride so you are not scrambling the morning of the ride.
Don’t bring: kick stands, bike locks, fenders, baskets or fenders/mud guards they will just fall off and slow you down! Take this stuff off before you come.
Meet at:
Cool island / Ave Louise
Avenue Louise 589, 1000 Bruxelles
