Fabric Q&A is happening in 36 hours
5k members, 1200 threads and now a 2nd team member
Hi everyone, things have gone fast since I launched this community back in January 2024!! I still remember my proud post when we reached 50 members (see below). Well, recently we crossed a previously unimaginable milestone of 5k members. Thank you to every one of you that chooses to spend your time here learning Fabric and engaging with the community. So far, we have had over 1200 conversations/ threads about Microsoft Fabric (the search bar contains a wealth of information!). I hope it has helped you learn Microsoft Fabric. The best thing is that this is just the start, I will continue to invest in this community because I can see it's making (at least a small) difference. But a community of this size is difficult to manage alone (especially as now I spend a lot of time in Fabric Dojo too). As such, I'm delighted to announce that I've brought on board Maleek - @Mubaraq Abdulmaleek to support yourselves (and me!) around the community. Maleek is hugely passionate about Fabric (he was one of the first members of this community back in January!), DP-600 certified and eager to learn as much as possible. He'll help new members get onboarded, help members find stuff (course content/ previous answers to community questions), and generally help make sure you have a great experience here. Great to have you here, Maleek! Soon, I'll share what I have planned for this community in 2025 and beyond. Thank you so much for being a part of this community we're building!

Join Fabric Dojo risk-free
UPDATE: the early bird has now finished. (last post about Fabric Dojo for a while!) Hey everyone, if you're wondering what is all this fuss about Fabric Dojo - then why don't you join the 180+ current members, and see for yourself. I'm so confident that you will find it valuable, that we operate a 14-day money-back guarantee, so if you're not happy in the first 14 days for whatever reason, you get a full refund. So there's nothing to lose! Watching YouTube videos about Microsoft Fabric, and going to events / meetups/ conferences about Fabric is great... BUT you won't start truly building your skills until you login into Microsoft Fabric and start building things. I get it, it's difficult. If you've never built a Data Pipeline before, or a Data Warehouse... WHERE DO YOU EVEN START? - What should you build? - What are the best practices? - What are the pitfalls to avoid? - Where can you get data to practice with? - And how do you stay motivated in the long-term, learning these hard new skills? I created Fabric Dojo to help you with all of the above, and more. With Fabric Dojo, the goal is to rapidly speed up your learning journey, by: ✔️ forcing you to get hands-on, and work through progressively harder tutorials to build your practical skills in data and analytics engineering (in Fabric). ✔️ dropping you into different business contexts, and give you tasks to complete, and all the data you need to get started, so you can focus 100% on thinking about how to solve the problem. ✔️ giving you constant support when you get stuck, through video walkthroughs, a vibrant and supportive community, and weekly group coaching calls. 👉 🔗 Get more info and sign up here: https://skool.com/fabricdojo Any questions?
