Build AI-ready data foundations on Microsoft Fabric with the dbt Fusion engine
The dbt Fusion engine is now launching in Private Preview for Fabric Data Warehouse - and we want Fabric teams in the room first. Initially available via the dbt VS Code extension and dbt platform, with a native Fabric development experience coming next so you can work wherever you work best.
Fusion brings dbt's transformation standard to Fabric's cloud-scale platform, with enterprise security controls automatically applied to every transformation, no external orchestration required.
This is a real preview with hands-on support from the dbt Labs team. Sign up to request early access to Private Preview: a direct feedback channel to product and engineering and a seat at the table as we build toward GA.
Orders of magnitude faster development
With parse times up to 30x faster than dbt Core, Fusion executes large dbt projects in milliseconds instead of minutes. On Fabric, that speed compounds: faster iteration, faster feedback, less time waiting on your tooling.
Governed transformation, built in
Enterprise security controls via Fabric are automatically applied to every transformation, delivering governance at scale. Define your business logic and metrics once in dbt; govern them centrally across every downstream Fabric workload.
A data foundation built for AI
Modern analytics and AI projects demand that teams can transform and serve data seamlessly across their stack. Fusion on Fabric means your transformation layer is production-grade, context-rick, and trustworthy — exactly what you need before AI touches your data.
What you can expect from private preview:
- Early access to Fusion on Fabric before GA
- Hands-on onboarding and support from the dbt Labs team
- Direct feedback loop with product and engineering
