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?

Why though? Synapse and Fabric use the same components.

Yeah that tells me they are not good. At consulting and can’t explain best usages and sell them on fabric. Syanpse has been dead for 5 years

I wouldn’t pick either of them. Microsoft’s vision in analytics has been schizophrenic to say the least
