FEATURED CASE STUDY

Enterprise Fabric Lakehouse & GenAI Suite (Knit-Works)

Architected a full enterprise migration from MariaDB to Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse via Gateway API, automated SharePoint-to-Python CRON ETL pipelines, and embedded fine-tuned SLMs and natural-language AI assistants into production React dashboards for million-euro-revenue stakeholders.

Business Problem

Legacy MariaDB schemas & manual SharePoint workflows caused 65% baseline data accuracy and high third-party SaaS/AI costs.

My Approach

Migrated to Fabric Lakehouse with ACID & RLS, automated Power Automate + CRON Python ETL, and deployed in-house fine-tuned SLMs.

Technologies Used

Microsoft Fabric, OneLake, Gateway API, MariaDB, Python, Power Automate, React.js, Power BI, SLMs.

Key Results

Lifted data accuracy from 65% to 95%, eliminated manual data handling, and drove a 40% reduction in operational costs.
