This looks very promising for future migrations and hopefully will bring down the initial cost.

But I wish there was first class support on Fabric for ADF Data Flows. For example, a client I'm working for has over 1500 data flows they developed over 3 years. Migration will be a challenge.

I’m happy to learn M, but it would be great to at least have DF1 support on Fabric, so the adoption from Synapse and ADF universe would be much easier. Learning curve less steep.

Personally, I felt like a team playing against Arsenal in Emirates in PM/Q environment. A bit hostile environment for me

However, PQ is a different universe with different rules, and although it’s a powerful language, M is not used widely in analytics world, if you’ve not been working on Power BI specifically.

Hi Alex, I’m very sorry that haven’t replied your comment. Haven’t logged into bsky for about 3 weeks until now.

The biggest drawback is that it’s creating a big learning and migration curve for people who are not M developers. DF on ADF/Synapse is Spark-based, and the activities are structured…
