Embedding in Web Apps
In the previous chapter, we talked about the new Fabric artifacts that will impact performance. The chapter started with data integration topics that need a spark engine that stores data in the Delta table format for Direct Lake access. The discussion ended with the monitoring tool used to measure performance with Fabric.
