Microsoft Fabric Fundamentals
Open in Skool ↗This is the perfect course to start learning the core concepts of Microsoft Fabric. The course introduces the Fabric platform, core structures like OneLake, workspaces and datastores in Fabric. You will gain a clear, foundational understanding of what Fabric is, why it exists, and how it supports modern data and analytics solutions.
What Is Microsoft Fabric
Fabric Architecture
Capacity Licensing
OneLake
OneLake as the shared storage layer of Fabric: how every engine reads the same Delta Parquet data, plus shortcuts and the OneLake File Explorer.
Lakehouse
The Lakehouse as a data store: files and tables side by side, how shortcuts avoid data duplication, and when a Lakehouse is the right choice.
Warehouse
The Warehouse for people who think in T-SQL: how it stores Delta Parquet under the hood, the ways to ingest and read data, and when to choose it.
Eventhouse
The Eventhouse for real-time data: KQL databases, strengths and weaknesses, core concepts, and how OneLake availability exposes the data to the rest of Fabric.
Databases
Transactional databases inside Fabric: SQL database versus Cosmos DB, when each fits, and how their data mirrors automatically to OneLake.
