From Flat to Sparkling: Monitoring Data Quality with Soda in Microsoft Fabric

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

After loading all of your data into OneLake, you might be wondering how to ensure its quality. In this session, we’ll explore and demonstrate how Soda can help you monitor data quality with automated data testing and alerting, write and monitor data contracts, and browse data quality metrics in a user-friendly dashboard. Soda is an open-source CLI tool where I recently contributed support for Microsoft Fabric. It’s available for Lakehouses and Data Warehouses and comes with an easy and git-controlled YAML syntax to monitor all aspects of data quality.

New to dbt? This hands-on tutorial is your launchpad. Starting from scratch, you’ll set up your first dbt project in dbt Platform’s Studio IDE against Microsoft Fabric, with no local setup required. By the end of the session, you’ll understand what dbt is, why it has become the backbone of modern analytics engineering, and how it fits into the broader data transformation landscape. You’ll work through the core building blocks of dbt: models, sources, seeds, and Jinja templating, before moving into macros, documentation, and testing. Every concept is reinforced with practical exercises, so you leave with working code. Whether you’re a data analyst or an engineer stepping into the analytics space, this tutorial gives you the foundation to hit the ground running on your first real dbt project.
