Onyx Data is a UK Microsoft Fabric consultancy. We take AI and analytics workloads from stalled pilot to governed production on Microsoft Fabric, Copilot and Azure AI, with cost control and governance built in from day one. Our Microsoft MVP-led team defines outcomes and evidence before delivery begins.
The timeline depends on your data estate, controls and target outcome. We scope a concrete delivery plan with you before work begins. In Microsoft’s published Elcome customer story, development of the Fabric and Copilot solution took only a few months.
Cost control is built in from day one through FabOps, our governance platform for Microsoft Fabric. It monitors capacity consumption, flags runaway workloads and enforces safe-consumption guardrails, so your Fabric bill stays predictable as you scale.
Building a governed Microsoft Fabric capability in-house takes months and rare skills. We bring a Microsoft MVP-led team that has done it time and time again, with governance and cost discipline as standard, so you reach production faster and avoid the usual pilot-to-production failures. You keep the capability: enablement and handover are part of every engagement.
The 30-minute strategy call is free, with no obligation. Engagements are then scoped to your data estate and goals, and you leave the call with a costed, governed plan. Our Fabric Accelerator and the FabOps platform have clear published entry points, so there are no surprises.
