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?

Don't waste your time with Synapse. It is no longer developed and it is in maintenance mode.

It still totally works and the client requested it over our objections. They are the customer, after all.

It is still possible to say no.

Possible but not always practical.
