Raiders of the Lost ADX – dataminds connect 2023
I’m very excited for this year’s edition of dataminds connect. It’s the first time I’m going to co-present a live session. My fellow explorer is the amazing bearded Johan Ludvig Brattås, and we’re going to talk about a lesser known data service: Azure Data Explorer. Normally I’d urge you to check out the agenda for […]
Book Review – Scalable Data Analytics with Azure Data Explorer
I recently finished the book Scalable Data Analytics with Azure Data Explorer (Modern ways to query, analyze, and perform real-time data analysis on large volumes of data), written by Jason Myerscough. I got the ebook for a mere $5 at a Packt sale, but luckily the price is no indication of the quality. In fact, […]

The passwords belong to Azure AD users, service principals, SQL Server users etc. and all of these are tied into the ETL process of a data warehouse. Some are used to connect to source data, others […]
Allow a user to only trigger pipelines in Azure Data Factory
Typically you have a bunch of pipelines that are started by one or more triggers. Sometimes, a pipeline needs to be manually triggered. For example, when the finance department is closing the fiscal year, they probably want to run the ETL pipeline a couple of times on-demand, to make sure their latest changes are reflected […]
Logic App errors out when using variables in a SharePoint Action
I have a Logic App that reads out a SharePoint library and stores all the documents found into Azure Blob Storage (ADF only supports Lists). I was trying to make this Logic App “generic”, meaning I could change the source folder and the destination container by using variables. That way, I have one single Logic […]
