In this episode of Keeping Up With Data, we sit down with Michael Peña—one of the few Microsoft MVPs recognised in both Azure and AI. As the Director of Data & AI at Playtime Solutions and a trusted advisor across multiple startups, MJ brings over 15 years of hands-on experience delivering enterprise-scale solutions for Fortune 500 companies and public agencies.
We dive deep into Microsoft Fabric: what it is, why it matters, and where it's heading. From early skepticism to real-world applications, MJ shares his unique perspective as a trainer, speaker, and consultant, offering practical insights for engineers, analysts, and business leaders alike. Learn how Fabric fits into the broader Azure ecosystem, why it’s gaining traction globally, and how organisations—from small businesses to enterprises—can get started without a full migration.
Whether you're a Fabric beginner, a seasoned Synapse user, or curious about AI-powered data platforms, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
