Building an Azure Delta Lakehouse in 50 minutes

Enough talk, it's time the show. This is an entirely practical, demo-driven session, taking data from source, through cleaning and into an analytics-ready model. All in a Lake. In 50 minutes.

It's the buzzword of the year - the "Data Lakehouse", that novel dream of having a modern data platform that gives all the functionality of a data warehouse, but with all of the benefits of a data lake, all in one box. This action packed session uses Azure Databricks as the core data transformation and analytics engine, augmenting it with Data Factory scheduling before presenting a serving layer through Databricks SQL, ready to be presented in PowerBI. In 50 minutes or less. It is VERY possible to build a lightweight, scalable analytics platform in a very short amount of time, and I'm going to show you how.
