dbt fusion support

[nickteff]

I'd like to understand what the roadmap will look like to have dbt's new compute engine working with Fabric. I know that not all the pieces may exist yet, but any information that can be shared would be appreciated!

It appears this issue on the dbt fusion repo is relevant. Custom adapters are currently unavailable.

Probably not possible for now... Also a lot more information from dbt Labs needed for this. I'd stick with dbt Core for the foreseeable future.

This is not Fusion for Fabric DWH. This is orchestrating dbt jobs inside Fabric (similar to Data Pipelines).

We’re also thrilled to announce a close collaboration between dbt Labs and Microsoft Fabric. As part of this collaboration, we’re working to bring dbt Fusion into Microsoft Fabric, delivering next-generation performance and advanced developer capabilities. This will become available in calendar year 2026.
