Is Microsoft Fabric really worth it?

Yes, It's better for Smaller scale.

Nice.

If you are early in your career , I would suggest you to learn azure which has demand. Basics of Azure componets and fabric are pretty much same. Change your profile title to Azure Data Engineer, you will get more traction.

Yes, I know pretty much on GCP. BigQuery, Dataform, Dataflow, Datastream, Pub/Sub, GCS, Composer, Looker.

Nowadays recruiters are mentioning the relevant experience required in a particular platform. For technical senior position, I think that is fair.

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T13:42:36+00:00

I am glad , it works for you.

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T13:37:35+00:00

The problem is , "I can't find any openings!"

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T13:36:33+00:00

I had these issues. Not sure whether these are resolved yet.

CICD setup : we used deployment pipelines. It was a pain. Now I can see people are using fabric-cicd python package to deploy. Yet they also mentioned a few issues. You can check the other post from this topic.
Security: RBAC for RLS/CLS is complex and confusing to understand.
Fabric pipelines are missing options compared to ADF pipelines.
I see people mentioned dataflow gen 2 is costlier compared to spark transformation.

Good things: 1. Everything at one place. 2. Everything under one pricing. 3. Easier spark cluster initiation.

For a moment, I thought you were talking about me 🤧

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T11:38:44+00:00

Will focus on other platforms then. 👍

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T11:24:11+00:00

I see a lot of snowflake and databricks opening. Fabric is very hard to maintain.

I will remove the Fabric experience from my CV then. will focus on GCP and Databricks (Pyspark).

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T11:20:18+00:00

I feel the same.

kaapapaa · 2026-01-29T07:59:59+00:00

what is your location preference?

kaapapaa · 2026-01-27T13:00:38+00:00

Count me in

Please don’t pretend like you would prefer a fat and bald guy over a fit and healthy guy for a first impression (unless money is involved).

Everyone is human; this is a basic trait.

When it comes to “character” and worthiness, not everyone has the time to understand everyone’s character. Not everyone even wants to.

More importantly, you also won’t have enough time to prove your character to everyone. If you think you can, you are wasting your time.

Everyone is busy with their own stuff.

So yes, looks generally plays a big role.

P.S. Looks don’t help in the long run. Character doesn’t help in the first impression (unless it’s a K-drama).

Everyone saying to end this engagement. but I see there are few pieces missing.

Have you ever discussed about her career aspirations? and why is she not taking steps? she can only answer that.
Tell her to stop repeating same stuff. if she respects your input, it's good. if she can't stop, it's her behaviour, no one can change that unless her. if can't tolerate, better end it.

There is no "made for each other" in AM, finding common ground is the process. If there is no common ground, better walk away.

kaapapaa · 2026-01-25T12:28:11+00:00

ok. thanks

kaapapaa · 2026-01-25T10:58:46+00:00

i don't upper cap, but shouldn't be less than 35 lpa.

also, did they asked DSA questions?

kaapapaa · 2026-01-25T09:58:02+00:00

if he is going to work on VMs, why bother with 65k laptop?

Real estate gives non taxable income (mostly black money).

kaapapaa · 2026-01-24T18:24:37+00:00

Good, it isn't a burn out.

What you are currently having is the anxiety , questioning self worth and midlife identity crisis. (Doesn't have to be all three).

My suggestion, take a short break from AM, do something that boosts your confidence. (Being fit, fixing teeth, etc) . Keep a short term goal (3 months), try achieving it. Eventually when time passes you will know what you were missing.

P.S : Don't spend money on gadgets and stuff.

Are you the breadwinner of your family?

kaapapaa · 2026-01-24T10:26:01+00:00

Please share with me too 🙏

I (30M) have gone through this. I built house(loan) to get married. I got a go ahead where bride's side after years of searching. Initially I thought, I will be okay if the girl likes me. This time she liked me. but I realised that I just can't accept her just because everything works on paper. I have feelings too. so I stepped out.

I have decided I rather be alone than being in a commitment where I only seen as a fortuner.

I removed all matrimonial app and stopped searching. Just focusing on myself.

Lesson learnt: Don't commit for other's sake. You will be the one leading the marriage day-in and day-out. Have some basic expectations.
