Fabric Capacity Management and Cost Optimisation with AI

The challenge

After expanding Microsoft Fabric and Power BI as its central analytics platform, the client faced challenges with capacity management, usage peaks and cost optimisation.

The approach

Kumulus prepared and integrated platform data in Microsoft Fabric, applied generative AI with access controls and validated its responses, with Power BI used for consumption.

The outcome

Business leaders gained natural-language access, through a Teams-based assistant, to information in the Microsoft Fabric and Power BI environment. The proof of value also assessed capacity peaks and auto-scale behaviour, giving evidence for both AI adoption and capacity-cost decisions.
