Azure Data Platform: Building a Unified Data Estate with Microsoft Fabric

Most enterprises don't have a data problem, they have a data sprawl problem: duplicate copies sitting in separate lakes, warehouses, and BI extracts that all drift out of sync. Cloudlieu's Azure Data Platform practice helps organizations consolidate onto Microsoft Fabric and Azure Synapse, so every team works from the same governed source of truth.

Unify data in OneLake

We consolidate scattered lakes and warehouses into a single OneLake foundation, storing data once in an open Delta Parquet format that every engine, Spark, SQL, and Power BI, can read directly.

Stand up governed lakehouses on Fabric

We build medallion-architecture lakehouses, bronze, silver, gold, with cataloging, lineage, and access controls in place from the start, so data stays trustworthy as it moves from raw ingestion to business-ready tables.

Connect Power BI through Direct Lake

Direct Lake mode lets Power BI query OneLake data in place, no scheduled imports or duplicate extracts, so dashboards reflect near real-time numbers without the usual refresh lag.
