    Agents don't know what they are talking about - volume 144232

    So today we have a lovely agent talking about all the Power BI jobs he has and how he sees demand going for the next few months / years.

    Shame Microsoft renamed and rebranded Power BI to Fabric in July

    Its a bit more complicated than that so you can see why the agent is struggling.

    Power BI remains currently in Fabric and as its the one with pretty Graphics its obviously the clever bit and should pay top dollar. The dirty engineering stuff has all got new names. Whats happened is they put ADF & Synapse etc. in a dark corner popped on a bit of Barry White and out pops Fabric.

    If they renamed PBI they would lose all that brand awareness. Some of the top floor have actually heard of PBI.

    They have finally dropped the cost for PBI capacity which makes sense maybe Tableau & looker have changed the sums?

    Fabric is all about creating a data fabric that the organisation manages & consumes in the same way.

                    Sorry.

                    Unfortunately it is common now for "programmes" and "programs" to mean the same thing.
