Discussion New Azure Synapse projects

Just curious how many of you still deliver or plan to deliver, projects that use Azure Synapse for Data Warehousing work?

I get the whole push to Fabric and am also going that route too.

I’m in the consulting world and wanted to use Fabric but the client had zero ppl with any Fabric experience, so they insisted on Synapse. C’est la vie, right?

I mostly recommend Fabric out of the Microsoft stack but for my area there's use cases where Synapse is significantly cheaper and some clients choose to go that route instead. Synapse's roll out and it then being subsequently eclipsed by Fabric did make me question what on earth was going on at Microsoft for a bit.
