Building a Fabric Data Agent with On‑Premises SQL Server Data

Pablo Junco Boquer

Many organizations still rely on on‑premises SQL Server for core operational workloads — finance, billing, ERP, manufacturing, and regulatory systems — that cannot be easily migrated to the cloud. At the same time, the business is demanding: Conversational access to data (“Ask the data” experiences) AI‑powered insights without building fragile ETL pipelines Faster time‑to‑value from analytics and AI Strong governance, security boundaries, and system ownership Microsoft Fabric addresses this challenge by allowing organizations to bring AI to their data before moving their data to AI. By leveraging SQL Server mirroring into Microsoft Fabric, organizations can continuously replicate on-premises data into OneLake, making it immediately available for analytics and AI—without disrupting source systems. On top of this foundation, semantic models and Fabric Data Agents enable governed, natural-language interactions powered by Microsoft Copilot.

Data Agent to Data Memo

Sandeep Pawar

Experimented with a pipeline to explore the data autonomously, find insights, find second order signals, create a cohesive narrative that's grounded in the data & context, added an optimization layer using [DSPy (Community)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/dspy/) to tune it and converted to speech. No external APIs, services, 100% in [hashtag#MicrosoftFabric](https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/all/?keywords=%23microsoftfabric&origin=HASH_TAG_FROM_FEED) . 🔊Listen, let me know. The novelty here is I used the recently published LLM-as-Verifier approach as a metric in GEPA to tune the narrative. (https://lnkd.in/g2Huycw9)

𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 in Copilot, Data Agents or Databricks One? 🤖

David Kofod Hanna

Is your data AI ready? Are your "consumers" ready for it? Don't let AI solely write your instructions, documentation and verified answers. You need a documentation system and process to steer the process. See the guide for links to notebooks, scripts and skills that take you further! My new favorite Tabular Editor C# Macro is on slide 5 😍 I'm happy to see that if you want to succeed with Chat with your data, optimizing and documenting semantic models are still (if not more) important.

Fabric Ontology with Data Agent

Chris Chalmers

AI built my Fabric Ontology demo in under an hour! Thanks to GitHub Copilot, I have notebooks for loading Lakehouse tables with demo data, building a Fabric Ontology, and creating instructions for a Fabric Data Agent to query the whole thing. Visit my GitHub repo to see the prompts I used, how Ontology Playground helped, and the skills files that were created along the way. ![Image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/22057c41-b456-4c48-a8c5-d778e945f599)

What We Learned Building a Real-World Fabric Data Agent — The Honest Field Notes

What We Learned Building a Real-World Fabric Data Agent — The Honest Field Notes

Ankit Kumar

The post is a detailed, field‑tested account of building a real‑world Fabric Data Agent on top of a complex industrial supply‑chain dataset, highlighting what works, what breaks, and what requires deliberate engineering. It walks through six major lessons: why agent instructions—not data sources—determine answer quality; how Semantic Models and Ontologies complement each other; the pitfalls of asynchronous graph rebuilds; the importance of using binding property names in GQL; common GQL query‑generation failures; and the hidden requirement to use dbo. prefixes in SQL. Despite the rough edges of a preview product, the author argues that Fabric IQ’s architecture—unifying SQL, DAX, and GQL behind a governed semantic layer—is powerful and worth understanding deeply for anyone building enterprise‑grade AI analytics.

Conversational Analytics using Microsoft Fabric Data Agents(e2e tutorial)

Harsha Guggilla

This post explains how Microsoft Fabric Data Agents can help teams answer unexpected business questions in real time by turning natural business language into trusted, governed analytical answers. It highlights the common pressure data teams face in review meetings when metrics suddenly shift and shows how conversational analytics can work effectively only when built on approved data, definitions and guardrails.

Copilot vs Data Agents

Nadim Aboud-Khalil

Microsoft Fabric now gives us Data Agents - purpose-built, grounded on your actual data sources (Lakehouse, Warehouse, SQL DB, KQL DB), and fully customizable with AI instructions, example SQL queries, and tone/format control. Compare that to the standalone Copilot: broad access, but limited customization and no instruction support.
