This is the 1st event and the launch of the Data and AI (DAI) Community and we are kicking off with a comparison of Databricks & MS Fabric The Sessions / Speakers --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fabric and Databricks: Friends or foes? In this demo led session, we trace how the lakehouse landscape got here and how Fabric and Databricks tackle the same problems in different ways. Then we get hands on with both. We'll compare them side by side and share lessons from the real world. You'll leave with a practical understanding of each platform, where they shine and where they're heading.
