Agentic Fabric: Your Data Estate Just Got a Workforce

Most organizations have already won the hard part of Fabric: the data is landed, modelled and governed. The value is still stuck in the last mile — someone has to open a report, notice the thing, interpret it, and go do something. Agents collapse that last mile. Microsoft has been quietly rebuilding Fabric as the grounding layer for agentic AI: data agents that query your lakehouses, warehouses, semantic models and Eventhouses in natural language; Fabric IQ, a shared context layer of semantic models, ontologies and graph that gives agents actual business meaning; and Operation / Automation Agents that watch real-time signals continuously and take approved action without a human in the loop for every step. The same knowledge then reaches outward into Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, Teams and M365 Copilot — governed once, reused everywhere. In sixty minutes we will build the whole picture — and spend half of it in the product, not on slides.
