The debate of Microsoft Fabric vs AWS Redshift is fundamentally a comparison between generations of architecture. Redshift requires a team to monitor distribution keys, manage vacuum processes, and carefully scale concurrency clusters. Microsoft Fabric, built on the Serverless Polaris engine, requires none of this. The system automatically distributes compute to where it is needed.
At Ozessa, we see mid-market companies wasting up to 40% of their AWS Redshift spend on idle compute nodes. By transitioning to a Independent Data Estate within Fabric, organizations immediately liquidate this Manual Data Debt and redirect capital toward actual business intelligence development.
