TimeXtender and Microsoft Fabric share a joined vision: they both aim to simplify analytics and enable business users to develop their analytics workloads themselves. Where analytics has grown tremendously in the last years, today analytics is in many tools very technical, code-intensive and thus requires an engineering/coding background. Not with TimeXtender and Microsoft Fabric.

By enabling seamless integration with Microsoft Fabric, TimeXtender reinforces its position as a leading solution for metadata-driven, AI-powered data integration. This update empowers organizations to harness the full potential of their data assets, driving faster insights, better decision-making, and a more resilient data strategy.
