Bajaj Finserv moves enterprise analytics from Synapse SQL pools to Fabric

Bajaj Finserv migrated enterprise analytics workloads from dedicated SQL pools in Azure Synapse Analytics to Fabric Data Warehouse, using OneLake shortcuts to govern existing Azure Data Lake Storage without claiming every asset was physically moved.

Organisation
Bajaj Finserv
Predecessor
dedicated SQL pools in Azure Synapse Analytics with existing Azure Data Lake Storage
Destination
Microsoft Fabric Data Warehouse and OneLake
Workload
enterprise analytics, governed batch and streaming data, audit and compliance analysis, and Power BI consumption
Stage
Migrated and operational
Retirement status
The dedicated SQL-pool workloads moved, but OneLake shortcuts mean some underlying ADLS data remains in place.
Confidence
High
Next trigger
A dated cutover, formal retirement statement or material later implementation milestone.
Evidence boundary: The source supports migration of enterprise analytics workloads from Synapse dedicated SQL pools to Fabric Data Warehouse. It does not prove physical migration or retirement of every ADLS asset.

Programme context

Bajaj Finserv migrated enterprise analytics workloads from dedicated SQL pools in Azure Synapse Analytics to Fabric Data Warehouse, using OneLake shortcuts to govern existing Azure Data Lake Storage without claiming every asset was physically moved.

Why this matters: This record identifies a named organisation, a source and destination platform, an affected workload and an evidence-bounded operational stage.

Implementation and architecture

  • Fabric Data Warehouse replaced the named dedicated SQL-pool workload.
  • Most existing T-SQL stored procedures were reused during migration.
  • OneLake shortcuts govern existing Azure Data Lake Storage without duplicating every asset.

Known unknowns and contradictions

  • The exact production cutover date.
  • The complete list of Synapse pools and workloads retired.
  • Which data assets remain physically stored in Azure Data Lake Storage.

No missing fact is inferred to broaden the source-supported migration claim.

PlatformTrace analysis

The source supports migration of enterprise analytics workloads from Synapse dedicated SQL pools to Fabric Data Warehouse. It does not prove physical migration or retirement of every ADLS asset.

Performance, cost, uptime and operational outcomes remain attributed source claims unless independently stated otherwise.
