Summary
Build production-ready enterprise apps in hours, not months. Describe the app you want using Rayfin's open-source SDK with GitHub Copilot, and generate your full backend in code — schemas, relationships, and access policies included. Deploy to Microsoft Fabric with a single CLI command and immediately inherit enterprise data security, identity controls, and audit compliance already in place across your data estate. Connect your app's live operational data to years of historical records in Fabric from the moment you deploy, no pipelines, no data movement. Query across both datasets using a Fabric data agent you spin up directly on your app's data. Will Thompson, Microsoft Fabric Principal Product Manager, shares how to take an app from idea to governed production deployment in a single session. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - Simplify backend complexity 01:20 - Home delivery service app 01:48 - Data analysis app 02:26 - See the build experience 03:08 - Copilot Generates Full Backend 03:47 - Authorization defined alongside schema 05:06 - One CLI Command Deploys to Fabric 05:21 - Create analytics app & add pages 06:31 - App Data Connects to Fabric Data Estate 06:55 - Conversational Data Agent on App Data 08:13 - Wrap up ► Link References Get started at https://aka.ms/rayfin ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
