Customers benefit from faster data availability in their Lakehouses, more consistent refresh performance at scale, and improved efficiency when using warehouse-backed compute for intermediate transformation and shaping workloads.This capability is especially valuable for organizations standardizing on Lakehouse architectures and building scalable analytics and AI solutions on Microsoft Fabric.","feature_name":"Dataflows - Performance: Optimized Writes from Staging Warehouse Compute to Lakehouse Destinations","last_modified":"2026-06-16","product_id":"a821f83f-dbd6-ee11-9079-000d3a310f67","product_name":"Data Factory","release_date":"Q3 2026","release_item_id":"57d40a9a-3335-f111-88b4-6045bd00fc61","release_status":"Planned","release_type":"General availability"}
