Regulated industries must reliably protect data, demonstrate compliance, and leverage AI effectively. Microsoft Fabric in the Sovereign Cloud brings all of this together into a secure, auditable, and AI‑enabled data platform – ideal for sensitive data and critical processes.

Why this workshop is valuable

 “Fabric in a Day” gives organizations rapid clarity within the complex world of data and compliance – with a clear focus on the specific Sovereign Cloud requirements in regulated environments:

Transparency across your data landscape:

  • Which data sources exist? Where are the risks or gaps related to security, data compliance, access management, and governance?

Clear requirements for secure cloud architectures:

  • What must a Sovereign Cloud environment deliver to ensure that sensitive or regulated data can be processed in a legally compliant way?

Understanding how to use AI responsibly:

  • Which data needs to be prepared in which way so that analytics, reporting, and AI use cases deliver measurable value – auditable and operationally secure?

Prioritization of the most valuable AI use cases:

  • No generic examples only actionable use cases with a realistic effort‑benefit profile.

A concrete vision for Microsoft Fabric in the Sovereign Cloud:

  • What does a secure, scalable starting point look like that fits your organization?

 

With the Fabric in a Day Workshop, you gain a solid decision-making foundation – without months of preliminary analysis.

  • Business unit leaders (e.g., Finance, Controlling, Manufacturing) who want to quickly identify robust AI use cases.

Follow‑up offerings

Proof of Concept (6 weeks) – Microsoft Fabric PoC

We implement a Microsoft Fabric Proof of Concept in a Sovereign Cloud environment. Within six weeks, we integrate initial data sources, configure the secure cloud architecture (“secure by design”), and demonstrate a production‑ready AI use case. We also handle the Microsoft funding application for you – providing a low‑risk entry point for regulated industries.

Roadmap for scalable adoption – Data & Cloud Governance

Based on the PoC, we develop an enterprise‑wide Fabric strategy for regulated data environments. The roadmap brings together architecture, security, data and cloud governance, role models, change, and enablement into a clear, auditable plan — enabling a scalable and operable AI data platform in the Sovereign Cloud.
