Microsoft Fabric Data Factory: A closer look at the pipelines

Microsoft Fabric Data Factory pipelines have many similarities with ADF pipelines. Many activities that are available in ADF (such as control flow and move and transform activities) are also available in Fabric Data Factory, and as time goes by more and more activities (such as data transformation activities) will be available on the Fabric platform.

In this recipe, we shall build a more complex pipeline to parse and load data from a file into a table in the lakehouse storage.

Getting ready

For this recipe, you need an active Power BI account and Microsoft Fabric activated. Follow the steps described in the Technical requirements section of this chapter to activate a Fabric trial license if you have not done so already.

This recipe builds upon the pipeline that we built in the previous recipe. If you do not have the pipeline or did not upload the data, please make sure to complete the previous recipe.
