Case Study Overview

Data-platform teams needed a repeatable way to promote Fabric reports, datasets, notebooks, lakehouses, and related workspace content between environments.

Outcome

A controlled and auditable promotion process that brings software-delivery discipline to Microsoft Fabric workspace operations.

Architecture Approach

1Use Azure Pipelines to coordinate setup, preparation, deployment, validation, and notification stages.
2Authenticate workspace operations through Microsoft Entra ID rather than embedded credentials.
3Automate Fabric operations through REST APIs, PowerShell, configuration files, and deployment pipeline controls.
4Retain status, monitoring, and result information so promotion activity remains traceable.
