**Fabric Direct Lake: When and Why You Should Consider Using It** Direct Lake in Microsoft Fabric allows Power BI to query data directly from OneLake using Delta tables, delivering fast performance without the need for data imports\refreshes. In this session we introduce Direct Lake and how it fits into the Fabric analytics architecture. We’ll look at scenarios where it works well, particularly for simplifying data pipelines and reducing data duplication. The talk will also highlight key advantages such as performance and architectural simplicity.

Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** [https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share](https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share)
