Motivation

As your organization evolves, it’s important to evaluate how modern data platforms can support your workflows and business needs. Microsoft Fabric is a unified analytics platform that brings together data integration, engineering, warehousing, science, and business intelligence.

This hackathon is designed to give your teams hands-on experience, allowing you to test key features, assess how Fabric can address real data challenges within your environment, and provide practical insight into the platform’s strengths, limitations, and suitability for your specific use cases.

Through this approach, your organization can quickly validate the platform’s technical fit and business value - reducing risk, accelerating adoption, and supporting informed decisions about future data initiatives.
