High Concurrency Mode for Notebooks in Pipelines for Fabric Spark

With high concurrency mode, we’re bringing a game-changing way to orchestrate your data ingestion and transformation processes in enterprise workflows. Notebooks in pipelines now leverage shared, high-performance sessions, combining speed with cost-efficiency—all while maintaining top-tier security.

Imagine a pipeline with five notebooks, each running 5 minutes. Normally, the 3-minute Spark start time per step would push your pipeline to 40 minutes. With high concurrency, the total runtime drops to 28 minutes—a 30% speed improvement.

Unlock faster workflows, lower costs, and a seamless data journey with high concurrency mode. Get ready to experience the next level of pipeline orchestration! 🎉
