Limitations in Microsoft Fabric

  • Članek

Applies to: ✅ SQL analytics endpoint and Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

This article details the current limitations in Microsoft Fabric.

Limitations

Current general product limitations for Data Warehousing in Microsoft Fabric are listed in this article, with feature level limitations called out in the corresponding feature article. More functionality will build upon the world class, industry-leading performance and concurrency story, and will land incrementally. For more information on the future of Microsoft Fabric, see Fabric Roadmap.

  • Data warehousing is not supported for multiple geographies at this time.
  • Currently, parquet files that are no longer needed are not removed from storage by garbage collection.

Limitations of the SQL analytics endpoint

The following limitations apply to SQL analytics endpoint automatic schema generation and metadata discovery.

  • Data should be in Delta Parquet format to be autodiscovered in the SQL analytics endpoint. Delta Lake is an open-source storage framework that enables building Lakehouse architecture.

  • Tables with renamed columns aren't supported in the SQL analytics endpoint.

  • Delta column mapping by name is supported, but Delta column mapping by ID is not supported. For more information, see Delta Lake features and Fabric experiences.

  • Delta tables created outside of the /tables folder aren't available in the SQL analytics endpoint.

    If you don't see a Lakehouse table in the warehouse, check the location of the table. Only the tables that are referencing data in the /tables folder are available in the warehouse. The tables that reference data in the /files folder in the lake aren't exposed in the SQL analytics endpoint. As a workaround, move your data to the /tables folder.

  • Some columns that exist in the Spark Delta tables might not be available in the tables in the SQL analytics endpoint. Refer to the Data types for a full list of supported data types.

  • If you add a foreign key constraint between tables in the SQL analytics endpoint, you won't be able to make any further schema changes (for example, adding the new columns). If you don't see the Delta Lake columns with the types that should be supported in SQL analytics endpoint, check if there is a foreign key constraint that might prevent updates on the table.

  • The SQL analytics endpoint does not support lakehouse schemas.

  • For information and recommendations on performance of the SQL analytics endpoint, see SQL analytics endpoint performance considerations.
