Lakehouse topology, Direct Lake, refresh, CI/CD blast radius, and Fabric platform contracts.
Airflow Fabric Fabric Airflow: Is It Possible to Use Apache Airflow with Fabric?
Keep Fabric as the execution plane and Airflow as the orchestration plane. Thin tasks, terminal-state success, and the failure modes that show up when you collapse both into one tool.

Azure Lakehouse Design: One Lakehouse with Schemas, or Many Lakehouses?
How to choose between multiple Fabric lakehouses and a schema-enabled lakehouse for bronze, silver, and gold, including CI/CD and naming fallout.

Power BI Direct Lake: Do You Still Need to Refresh a Semantic Model?
How to choose notebook, pipeline, or scheduled refresh for lakehouse semantics, and when Direct Lake beats a SQL endpoint for heavy facts.

Why lakehouse migrations fail on NULL versus zero, float drift, and type rebase settings, and how to treat parity as a contract.

Why Fabric deployment tooling can republish unchanged notebooks and how to design for stable identities and smaller blast radius.
AzureMicrosoft Fabric Fabric OneLake Shortcuts: Should Shortcuts Stay Bronze-Only?
Argue that bronze should be a contract of OneLake shortcuts and clean views, not a second physical copy of upstream gold and silver.
Microsoft Fabric Fabric Gold + Direct Lake: Direct Lake or Import for Large Fact Tables?
Show why a high-volume source table belongs in gold as a documented fact table with shared key matching and Direct Lake storage mode for volume.
Microsoft Fabric Fabric Power BI Gold Semantic Contract: Can You Choose Which Columns Reach the Direct Lake Model?
Argue that gold tables only become platform assets when unmatched keys, captions, and relationships are explicit in the semantic model.
Microsoft FabricPower BI Fabric Workspace Naming: Is a One-Time Rename Cheaper Than Translating Prefixes Forever?
Argue that inconsistent workspace display-name prefixes create operational tax and that a one-time rename with stable catalog names is cheaper than perpetual translation layers.
Microsoft Fabric Fabric Azure Fabric CI/CD: Merge the whole ladder, or cherry-pick what is ready?
In a multi-dev Fabric test to staging to main ladder, merge the tip only when everything is ready. Safer selective promotion cherry-picks squash commits onto a temp branch, opens a PR, then deploys.
