If you’ve ever clicked Deploy in Fabric, watched the spinner, and hoped nothing “mysteriously” changed in Test or Prod… you’re not alone. Microsoft Fabric has made it possible to manage analytics artifacts like software. But getting to reliable releases—repeatable deployments, environment-safe configuration, and auditable changes—still takes intent. In this post, I’ll walk through a practical, production-minded approach to CI/CD in Microsoft Fabric: how to structure Deployment Pipelines, where Git fits, how Variable Libraries and Deployment Rules reduce environment drift, and when to lean on Fabric-CICD and APIs to move beyond the UI.
