Think spreadsheets are chaos? Cute. In this episode we stress-test Microsoft Fabric against the worst data you own: photorealistic 3D assets and full-fidelity digital twins. We break down why a single “file” is actually a sprawling supply chain of scans…

In the evolving world of Microsoft Fabric, the Digital Twin Builder preview emerges like a quiet shift that changes everything without announcing itself loudly. You start by taking the world you already know—machines, rooms, sensors, movements…
Start from a repeating business decision that already causes delays or handoffs, then model the identity, state, work, events and relationships needed for it. · From the episode: Digital Twins on Azure
Not a polished copy of a machine with sensor values, but a way to represent the operating facts around it and the relationships that explain why anyone should care. · From the episode: Digital Twins on Azure
If nobody can name the person making the decision, the timing and the required action, you do not have a digital twin use case. · From the episode: Digital Twins on Azure
It is a codified representation of how your organization's processes and decisions work, so AI agents can reason through options and guide users instead of giving generic answers. · From the episode: Codify Business Logic into a Digital Twin for…
Business knowledge should not live only in prompts, workflows or individual employees, but be codified in a digital twin. That way the logic behind decisions is captured in one place and can be reused by AI agents. · From the episode: Codify Business Logic into a Digital Twin for…
