Microsoft Fabric IQ adds 'semantic intelligence' layer to Fabric
"Fabric IQ will offer five integrated capabilities, Microsoft said: the ability to create an ontology or shared model of business entities, relationships, rules, and objectives; a semantic model extending business intelligence definitions beyond analytics to AI and operations; a native graph engine to enable multi-hop reasoning with data; virtual analysts called data agents that can answer business questions; and autonomous operations agents that can reason, learn, and act in real time."
"The ontology is the foundation of all of this, a living structure capturing key business concepts, the company said. It contrasted it with traditional data modelling, saying that it can be created and evolved by business experts using a no-code tool (still in preview), without support from engineers - yet still offering IT managers the control to secure, approve, version, and manage it."
Fabric IQ adds semantic intelligence to the Fabric data and analytics platform to maintain a common data model and automate operational decisions. Work IQ and Foundry IQ combine with Fabric IQ to form a shared intelligence layer spanning Microsoft 365 and multiple knowledge repositories for grounding AI agents. Fabric IQ includes an ontology builder, a semantic model that extends BI to AI and operations, a native graph engine for multi-hop reasoning, virtual data agents to answer business questions, and autonomous operations agents for real-time reasoning and action. Analysts caution about upfront IT work, deployment hurdles, and potential vendor lock-in despite Power BI model import support.
