Quick Recap
In this session, our Sikich experts broke down what Microsoft Fabric means for Dynamics 365 users across Finance & Supply Chain, Business Central, and Customer Engagement.
Here’s the high-level overview:
- What Fabric is: Microsoft’s unified data and analytics platform built on OneLake, combining Power BI, Synapse capabilities, data engineering, real-time analytics, and AI tools in one place.
- How it connects to Dynamics:
- F&SCM and CE integrate natively through Fabric Link: no ETL, no data movement, just secure shortcuts.
- Business Central connects through Dataverse or Fabric’s data pipelines.
- Why it matters: Fabric centralizes data, improves performance, enables cross-company reporting, and provides the clean, unified foundation needed for modern AI.
- Licensing basics: Fabric is purchased as Azure capacity (F-series SKUs). Power BI licensing is included starting at F64.
- Reporting considerations: Embedded Power BI reports still work as-is, but migrating them to Fabric typically requires rebuilding due to different underlying models.
