Exploring Azure Synapse Analytics

Azure Synapse Analytics is an integrated end-to-end solution for data analytics at scale. It includes multiple technologies and capabilities to combine the data integrity and reliability of a scalable, high-performance SQL Server-based relational data warehouse with the flexibility of a data lake and open source Apache Spark. It also contains native support for log and telemetry analytics through the use of Azure Synapse Data Explorer pools and built-in data pipelines for data ingestion and transformation.

All Azure Synapse Analytics services can be managed from a single interactive user interface called Azure Synapse Studio. It allows you to create interactive notebooks that can combine Spark code and Markdown content. Synapse Analytics is ideal for building a single, unified analytics solution on Azure.
