Azure Synapse support end

Question

Hello-

I have heard that Microsoft is going to end support for synapse.Is that true ?

What if customers don't want to move to Microsoft Fabric? I believe it works on data mesh so that may not be suitable for all organisation.

Thanks,

Hello Sourav,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum.

No, it is not true that Microsoft is going to end support for Azure Synapse Analytics. In case, If you have encountered any sources suggesting otherwise, feel free to share them, and I can verify it with my internal team and get back to you.

In fact, Microsoft is continuing to invest in and enhance the capabilities of Azure Synapse Analytics.

Microsoft Fabric is a new distributed computing platform that is designed to work with Azure Synapse Analytics and other Azure services. Fabric provides a way to build and operate large-scale, distributed systems that can handle complex data processing and analytics workloads.

While Microsoft Fabric is a new offering, it is not a replacement for Azure Synapse Analytics. Customers are not required to move to Microsoft Fabric if they do not want to. Azure Synapse Analytics will continue to be supported and enhanced by Microsoft, and customers can continue to use it as their analytics service of choice.

That being said, Microsoft Fabric may be a good fit for some organizations that have complex data processing and analytics needs. It provides a way to build and operate large-scale, distributed systems that can handle complex workloads, and it is designed to work seamlessly with Azure Synapse Analytics and other Azure services.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
