Architecture

Hi Friends, I am trying to have an architecture that consists of ADF, ADLS, Data Lakehouse, and Synapse. However, I was not able to find an architecture that meets my requirements in the Azure Architecture Center. Could you please help me with the links to decent architectural diagrams on Azure data architecture? Thank you

Can you be more specific of your ask here?

What is your end goal here? Do you want a framework that incorporates all of the items you stated above?

Couple of aspects :
ADLS itself acts as your data lake (data lake is a logical term in data world)

In case if you already have synapse workspace, there is no need of managing a separate component like ADF as Synapse itself supports data pipelines
