[Fabric] Leer y escribir storage con Databricks

Muchos lanzamientos y herramientas dentro de una sola plataforma haciendo participar tanto usuarios técnicos (data engineers, data scientists o data analysts) como usuarios finales. Fabric trajo una unión de involucrados en un único espacio. Ahora bien, eso no significa que tengamos que usar todas pero todas pero todas las herramientas que nos presenta.

Si ya disponemos de un excelente proceso de limpieza, transformación o procesamiento de datos con el gran popular Databricks, podemos seguir usándolo.

En posts anteriores hemos hablado que Fabric nos viene a traer un alamacenamiento de lake de última generación con open data format. Esto significa que nos permite utilizar los más populares archivos de datos para almacenar y que su sistema de archivos trabaja con las convencionales estructuras open source. En otras palabras podemos conectarnos a nuestro storage desde herramientas que puedan leerlo. También hemos mostrado un poco de Fabric notebooks y como nos facilita la experiencia de desarrollo.

En este sencillo tip vamos a ver como leer y escribir, desde databricks, nuestro Fabric Lakehouse.

Para poder comunicarnos entre databricks y Fabric lo primero es crear un recurso AzureDatabricks Premium Tier. Lo segundo, asegurarnos de dos cosas en nuestro cluster:

Utilizar un policy "unrestricted" o "power user compute"

2. Asegurarse que databricks podría pasar nuestras credenciales por spark. Eso podemos activarlo en las opciones avanzadas

NOTA: No voy a entrar en más detalles de creación de cluster. El resto de las opciones de procesamiento les dejo que investiguen o estimo que ya conocen si están leyendo este post.

Ya creado nuestro cluster vamos a crear un notebook y comenzar a leer data en Fabric. Esto lo vamos a conseguir con el ABFS (Azure Bllob Fyle System) que es una dirección de formato abierto cuyo driver está incluido en Azure Databricks.

La dirección debe componerse de algo similar a la siguiente cadena:

oneLakePath = 'abfss://myWorkspaceId@onelake.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com/myLakehouse.lakehouse/Files/'

Conociendo dicha dirección ya podemos comenzar a trabajar como siempre. Veamos un simple notebook que para leer un archivo parquet en Lakehouse Fabric

Gracias a la configuración del cluster, los procesos son tan simples como spark.read

Así de simple también será escribir.

Iniciando con una limpieza de columnas innecesarias y con un sencillo [frame].write ya tendremos la tabla en silver limpia.

Nos vamos a Fabric y podremos encontrarla en nuestro Lakehouse

Así concluye nuestro procesamiento de databricks en lakehouse de Fabric, pero no el artículo. Todavía no hablamos sobre el otro tipo de almacenamiento en el blog pero vamos a mencionar lo que pertine a ésta lectura.

Los Warehouses en Fabric también están constituidos con una estructura tradicional de lake de última generación. Su principal diferencia consiste en brindar una experiencia de usuario 100% basada en SQL como si estuvieramos trabajando en una base de datos. Sin embargo, por detras, podrémos encontrar delta como un spark catalog o metastore.

El path debería verse similar a esto:

path_dw = "abfss://WorkspaceName@onelake.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com/WarehouseName.Datawarehouse/Tables/dbo/"

Teniendo en cuenta que Fabric busca tener contenido delta en su Spark Catalog de Lakehouse (tables) y en su Warehouse, vamos a leer como muestra el siguiente ejemplo

Ahora si concluye nuestro artículo mostrando como podemos utilizar Databricks para trabajar con los almacenamientos de Fabric.

Mythbusting Generative AI: The Eco-friendly, Ethical ChatGPT Is Out There

I've been hyperfixating learning a lot about Generative AI recently and here's what I've found - genAI doesn’t just apply to chatGPT or other large language models.

Small Language Models (specialised and more efficient versions of the large models)

are also generative

can perform in a similar way to large models for many writing and reasoning tasks

are community-trained on ethical data

and can run on your laptop.

"But isn't analytical AI good and generative AI bad?"

Fact: Generative AI creates stuff and is also used for analysis

In the past, before recent generative AI developments, most analytical AI relied on traditional machine learning models. But now the two are becoming more intertwined. Gen AI is being used to perform analytical tasks – they are no longer two distinct, separate categories. The models are being used synergistically.

For example, Oxford University in the UK is partnering with open.ai to use generative AI (ChatGPT-Edu) to support analytical work in areas like health research and climate change.

"But Generative AI stole fanfic. That makes any use of it inherently wrong."

Fact: there are Generative AI models developed on ethical data sets

Yes, many large language models scraped sites like AO3 without consent, incorporating these into their datasets to train on. That’s not okay.

But there are Small Language Models (compact, less powerful versions of LLMs) being developed which are built on transparent, opt-in, community-curated data sets – and that can still perform generative AI functions in the same way that the LLMS do (just not as powerfully). You can even build one yourself.

No it's actually really cool! Some real-life examples:

Dolly (Databricks): Trained on open, crowd-sourced instructions

RedPajama (Together.ai): Focused on creative-commons licensed and public domain data

There's a ton more examples here.

(A word of warning: there are some SLMs like Microsoft’s Phi-3 that have likely been trained on some of the datasets hosted on the platform huggingface (which include scraped web content like from AO3), and these big companies are being deliberately sketchy about where their datasets came from - so the key is to check the data set. All SLMs should be transparent about what datasets they’re using).

"But AI harms the environment, so any use is unethical."

Fact: There are small language models that don't use massive centralised data centres.

SLMs run on less energy, don’t require cloud servers or data centres, and can be used on laptops, phones, Raspberry Pi’s (basically running AI locally on your own device instead of relying on remote data centres)

If you're interested -

You can build your own SLM and even train it on your own data.

Let's recap

Generative AI doesn't just include the big tools like chatGPT - it includes the Small Language Models that you can run ethically and locally

Some LLMs are trained on fanfic scraped from AO3 without consent. That's not okay

But ethical SLMs exist, which are developed on open, community-curated data that aims to avoid bias and misinformation - and you can even train your own models

These models can run on laptops and phones, using less energy

AI is a tool, it's up to humans to wield it responsibly

It means everything – and nothing

Everything – in the sense that it might remove some of the barriers and concerns people have which makes them reluctant to use AI. This may lead to more people using it - which will raise more questions on how to use it well.

It also means that nothing's changed – because even these ethical Small Language Models should be used in the same way as the other AI tools - ethically, transparently and responsibly.

So now what? Now, more than ever, we need to be having an open, respectful and curious discussion on how to use AI well in writing.

In the area of creative writing, it has the potential to be an awesome and insightful tool - a psychological mirror to analyse yourself through your stories, a narrative experimentation device (e.g. in the form of RPGs), to identify themes or emotional patterns in your fics and brainstorming when you get stuck -

but it also has capacity for great darkness too. It can steal your voice (and the voice of others), damage fandom community spirit, foster tech dependency and shortcut the whole creative process.

Just to add my two pence at the end - I don't think it has to be so all-or-nothing. AI shouldn't replace elements we love about fandom community; rather it can help fill the gaps and pick up the slack when people aren't available, or to help writers who, for whatever reason, struggle or don't have access to fan communities.

People who use AI as a tool are also part of fandom community. Let's keep talking about how to use AI well.

Feel free to push back on this, DM me or leave me an ask (the anon function is on for people who need it to be). You can also read more on my FAQ for an AI-using fanfic writer Master Post in which I reflect on AI transparency, ethics and something I call 'McWriting'.

Azure Data Factory Components

Azure Data Factory Components are as below:

Pipelines: The Workflow Container

A Pipeline in Azure Data Factory is a container that holds a set of activities meant to perform a specific task. Think of it as the blueprint for your data movement or transformation logic. Pipelines allow you to define the order of execution, configure dependencies, and reuse logic with parameters. Whether you’re ingesting raw files from a data lake, transforming them using Mapping Data Flows, or loading them into an Azure SQL Database or Synapse, the pipeline coordinates all the steps. As one of the key Azure Data Factory components, the pipeline provides centralized management and monitoring of the entire workflow.

Activities: The Operational Units

Activities are the actual tasks executed within a pipeline. Each activity performs a discrete function like copying data, transforming it, running stored procedures, or triggering notebooks in Databricks. Among the Azure Data Factory components, activities provide the processing logic. They come in multiple types:

Data Movement Activities – Copy Activity

Data Transformation Activities – Mapping Data Flow

Control Activities – If Condition, ForEach

External Activities – HDInsight, Azure ML, Databricks

This modular design allows engineers to handle everything from batch jobs to event-driven ETL pipelines efficiently.

Triggers: Automating Pipeline Execution

Triggers are another core part of the Azure Data Factory components. They define when a pipeline should execute. Triggers enable automation by launching pipelines based on time schedules, events, or manual inputs.

Types of triggers include:

Schedule Trigger – Executes at fixed times

Event-based Trigger – Responds to changes in data, such as a file drop

Manual Trigger – Initiated on-demand through the portal or API

Triggers remove the need for external schedulers and make ADF workflows truly serverless and dynamic.

How These Components Work Together

The synergy between pipelines, activities, and triggers defines the power of ADF. Triggers initiate pipelines, which in turn execute a sequence of activities. This trio of Azure Data Factory components provides a flexible, reusable, and fully managed framework to build complex data workflows across multiple data sources, destinations, and formats.

Conclusion

To summarize, Pipelines, Activities & Triggers are foundational Azure Data Factory components. Together, they form a powerful data orchestration engine that supports modern cloud-based data engineering. Mastering these elements enables engineers to build scalable, fault-tolerant, and automated data solutions. Whether you’re managing daily ingestion processes or building real-time data platforms, a solid understanding of these components is key to unlocking the full potential of Azure Data Factory.
