In the introduction, I explained the setup of the use case and why we need to use the OData feed: to get the list of Project IDs, because the REST API doesn’t have an endpoint for this. Weird, right? In this part of the series, we’ll dive into the Lookup activity, which uses the OData […]

dataMinds Saturday 2024 – Session Materials
It was great being at dataMinds Saturday 2024 this past weekend. A great crowd of data enthusiasts was present to learn from a bunch of local speakers (both old and new :)). I was some interesting sessions about Fabric, Purview, finding and fixing issues in a data lake with KQL, and Benni‘s great session on […]
Check your regions people
Today I was having a nice discussion with some colleagues about Fabric and pricing/licensing came up. I mentioned an F2 is only around €250 a month, but a colleague said “no no, it’s over €300”. A bit confused, I pulled up the sizing table of my Fabric capacity in Azure, which looks like this: Similarly, […]

Azure Function App doesn’t retrieve most recent secret value from Azure Key Vault
Quite a long title for quite an annoying issue. Let me explain the set-up first: I have pipelines running in Azure Data Factory and I want to send e-mails with customized messages when something goes wrong (this means the standard alerting of ADF doesn’t cut it). ADF doesn’t have a built-in activity for sending e-mails […]

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, […]
