Microsoft Fabric Data Agents: Bringing Structured and Unstructured Data Together

Most enterprise questions do not live neatly in one place. The numbers may be in a warehouse, the rules may be buried in PDF files, and the explanation may sit in a support document that only three people know exists. A Microsoft Fabric data agent gives users a conversational way to ask questions across that information while keeping the answer grounded in approved enterprise data. I think of it as a configurable virtual analyst for a business domain, not a generic chatbot that happens to know a little SQL. Fabric Data Agents are now generally available, while some of the newer data sources, integrations, and advanced capabilities discussed later in this post are still in preview.
