What happens when thousands of ships start streaming live signals into Microsoft Fabric? This session takes you beyond pretty maps and blinking dashboards into the world of real operational intelligence.

Using live maritime AIS data (Automatic Identification System), we will build an end-to-end Real-Time Intelligence solution in Microsoft Fabric that transforms raw ship telemetry into insight, context, and action. We will ingest position, heading, status, and movement data in real time, enrich it with analytics, and bring it to life through geospatial experiences that show far more than dots moving across the sea.

But the real story starts after the visualization. We will explore how to detect unusual behavior, surface meaningful patterns, and trigger automated responses with Activator and operational workflows. Because in real projects, value does not come from watching dashboards. It comes from knowing what matters, when it matters, and what should happen next.

Along the way, we will tackle the hard questions that separate flashy demos from real solutions: How much real-time data do you actually need to keep? What should be aggregated, and when? How do you balance historical insight, operational relevance, and cost? And how do you design systems that support decisions instead of just generating noise?

This session is for data professionals, architects, and Fabric enthusiasts who want to see how Real-Time Intelligence becomes truly powerful when streaming analytics, maps, automation, and business context come together.
