Operations Context for AI | Ontology in Fabric IQ

April 28, 2026·9 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Build a shared semantic foundation for your enterprise data in Microsoft Fabric IQ. Generate a full business ontology from an existing Power BI semantic model, map entities and relationships, and embed real-time operational signals alongside business rules that live inside the ontology with the data and its meaning. From there, trace cascading operational impacts across your business through the relationship graph, stand up Operations Agents in natural language with Teams-based actions, and connect the same ontology as a knowledge source in Copilot Studio or Azure AI Foundry.  Chafia Aouissi, Fabric IQ Principal PM Manager, shares how to model your business operations, embed intelligence in your data, and deploy agents that act on it.  ► QUICK LINKS:  00:00 - Unify models & data with Fabric IQ 01:12 - Generate an ontology 02:27 - Bring in Power BI reports 03:08 - View across multiple data sources 04:23 - Define rules 05:18 - Built-in ontology graph 06:03 - Fabric IQ agents 08:24 - Fabric IQ as Knowledge Source 08:54 - Wrap up ► Link References Get started at https://aka.ms/FabricIQ ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
