Imagine you are a new hire or recently switched teams. Now you have to work with a new dataset that you have no idea how to navigate. The Clinic team addresses this roadblock by creating a self-service data discovery tool that allows users to ask what data is available, get insights and learn how to query the data. The team leveraged Microsoft Fabric, a data analytics platform, to allow anyone to onboard to datasets quicker and discover insights more efficiently.
