Where Fabric meets automation
The foundation your AI agents read from.
When automations need customer, finance or stock data from several systems, a governed Fabric foundation gives them one accurate source, with the same definitions your reports use.
- Copilot in Power BINatural-language questions answered from well-built semantic models, subject to your licensing and tenant settings.
- Fabric data agentsConversational access to governed data for teams who don't build reports.
- Automations that read from FabricWorkflows check credit limits, stock or customer history before they act.
- One measure of successAutomation results reported in Power BI alongside the business numbers they affect.

Questions
About Microsoft Fabric.
Can you work with our existing systems and team?
Yes. We can lead delivery or work alongside your BI, data and IT teams. We assess what to retain, improve and connect, with source access, security and operating responsibilities agreed as part of the scope.
What does Steadfast Global implement in Microsoft Fabric?
End-to-end Fabric solutions covering data integration, OneLake, lakehouse or warehouse patterns, Medallion architecture, semantic models, Power BI, real-time analytics, governance and AI-ready consumption.
How much does Microsoft Fabric cost to run?
Fabric is billed by capacity size, hours running and storage, plus Power BI licences where needed. We model these costs for your setup during the readiness assessment.
Can Copilot answer business questions using Power BI data?
Microsoft provides Copilot experiences that work with Power BI reports and semantic models, subject to licensing, capacity, permissions, region and tenant configuration. Strong semantic models and security are essential for reliable answers.
Can Microsoft Fabric integrate CRM, ERP and marketing platforms?
Yes. Fabric can ingest or connect to data through pipelines, dataflows, notebooks, event streaming, shortcuts, mirroring and APIs. The right pattern depends on the source, latency and governance requirements.
