Prepare your data estate for the era of AI and join the Microsoft Fabric Community Conference

Data is the currency of AI. The transformative value of AI lies in the unique data a business owns and the power of AI to extract insights, efficiencies, and innovation from that data. For years, businesses have collected and stored massive amounts of data from apps, services, IoT sensors, and more. Those businesses now have the opportunity to use AI to extract value from all of it. 

But on the road to realizing a data-fueled AI transformation, many businesses, big and small, face challenges with data sprawl, poor data quality, and limited capabilities to govern the use of their data. These challenges are common and they’re not new. So what’s new now? Microsoft Fabric and its ability to bring together powerful tools to solve these challenges for a successful data estate transformation. 

If you are wrestling with these challenges now, or will soon, I invite you to join us for the Microsoft Fabric Community Conference in Las Vegas, March 26-28, 2024. 

An end-to-end data analytics platform, Microsoft Fabric brings together data preparation, data warehousing, data engineering, data science, real-time analytics, and business intelligence in one cohesive platform. This intersection of data unification and AI-enablement can accelerate and dramatically change the way your business manages and governs data across your business.
