Unified Data Platform Optics

This repository contains a set of monitoring solutions for Microsoft Fabric designed to help administrators, operators, and governance teams observe, analyze, and optimize Microsoft Fabric environments. The tools provide insights into tenant health, cost, workspace performance, and usage patterns.


Purpose:
FUAM provides a consolidated monitoring solution for Microsoft Fabric and Power BI tenants. It aggregates activity, capacity, inventory, and usage data into a unified analytics layer, enabling high-level and detailed insights for tenant administrators.

Highlights:

  • Collects data across capacities, workspaces, activities, settings, and inventory.

  • Aims to support long-term trend analysis and governance beyond out-of-the-box monitoring tools.

  • Not an official Microsoft product; community-driven in the Fabric toolbox.

Use Cases:

  • Capacity and usage trend analysis

  • Inventory and configuration auditing

  • Governance and compliance reporting


Purpose:
Provides cost reporting and analysis capabilities for Microsoft Fabric environments, helping teams understand and optimize capacity usage and charges.

Highlights:

  • Tracks capacity consumption over time.

  • Enables chargeback or showback reporting by workspace or department.

  • Supports identification of cost optimization opportunities.


Purpose:
Template dashboards and reports that visualize workspace-level monitoring data. These leverage the workspace monitoring Eventhouse database, which collects logs and metrics from workspace artifacts.

Highlights:

  • Templates for Power BI reports and dashboards covering workspace performance and usage.

  • Designed to help teams quickly visualize and explore performance metrics.

  • Requires Workspace Monitoring enabled in Fabric.


Purpose: Leverages data from Microsoft 365 services, empowering different business units to access relevant information. C-level executives can utilize this solution to gain insights into compliance-related business metrics.
