Session Overview
Synapse Analytics is Microsoft’s flagship limitless data analytics service. In this session we’ll look at how Serverless SQL Pools and Pipelines are the ultimate dream team, working together to ingest, transform, and serve data stored in Azure Data Lake Gen2.
Within Synapse Analytics, Serverless SQL Pools allows the reading and writing of data stored externally in Azure Storage, Data Lake, Cosmos DB, and the Dataverse. Pipelines allow the transformation of data between data services at scale including Azure Storage and Data Lake.
