Currently we are using DataFactory to pull the data using Parquet format, we do have scenario where source team is providing delta format and one single file with parquet format.

we have seen the article where we do have option to use Dataflow to consume data using delta format but seems it is in preview, i want to know what is the plan to make it production so that we can use this feature for our production environment.

    Hi @Shobhit Kumar Agrawal ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A and thanks for reaching out.

    Delta format in Azure Data Factory is available in GA - Please refer to this article : ADF Data Flow Updates: CDM and Delta Lake Connectors Generally Available

    Known limitation : When writing to a delta sink, there is a known limitation where the numbers of rows written won't be return in the monitoring output.

    Hope this info helps.
