Delta Parquet for dummies?
Hi all. we are currently using a c# library to convert JSON to parquet. The JSON is highly complex, and to ensure that Power BI can easily access the data without having to do a million steps, we are expanding the records and tables to essentially flatten the resulting parquet. As part of my initial exploration of Fabric, I understand that Delta Parquet is the way to go for these files, and that we probably need to use Spark to get there. However, I have been able to find very little information (maybe I don't know what to look for) about Delta Parquet, whether we need to use Spark, how does Power BI use these files differently from straight-up Parquet. I'm grateful in advance for any pointers to information, videos, etc., that would be helpful for me to understand this important topic.

@Sharad Verma, Thank you for the ideas and knowledge! We are currently not using Databricks due to the cost (since what I'm working on has to be done on a shoe string budget.) We're using a C# library in a function app (the cost of which is less visible since I have access to a Premium function app plan.) Maybe after proving out the concept I can get budget for databricks. In the meantime, I will take your advice about un-nesting the complexities since trying to do it in Power BI programmatically (as opposed to hard coding the columns) is turning out to be much more difficult than I hoped.

@Mohammad Eljawad I'll look into it. Thank you!!!
Fabric Licenses and Prices
Hello, I need to know these questions regarding Fabric licenses: -If you have the Premium Capacity F64 license (Equivalent to the Power BI P1 license) will the cost be the same? And if I increased the usage would I pay more? -For other types of licenses such as F2, F4, etc., which the payment is for data storage and usage, what is the price? -Is copilot payment per use charged separately? What is its price?

@Will Needham If there's one thing I've seen with Microsoft, there's very little that leads to spending less money :)
Power BI Premium = F64 capacity for free?
In the "How Fabric is Different" section of the training, there is mention of "If your company is currently paying for a Power BI Premium Capacity, you can create Fabric items from that capacity." You get an F64 Capacity for free with Power BI Premium. Our Azure billing experts are questioning this. Can someone point me to further information?

Hi Everyone. My name is Gyan. I'm originally from the Encinitas (San Diego), California, but for the past 3 years, I've been a digital nomad. I'm currently living in Quito, Ecuador. I am returning to the US in two weeks, although I'm not sure if the house where I stay will still be there, thanks to Hurricane Milton. I'm a solution architect in the medical device arena, focused on device connectivity, data acquisition and analytics. I'm excited about Fabric and the potential to bring all of our data estates under a single, accessible structure, but there are so many things that I don't know. Also, given that the data from the devices I work with has the potential to contain Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Health Information (PHI), the security and privacy requirements are higher than most other fields.
