Arshad Ali makes an announcement:
Fabric Spark connector for SQL databases (Azure SQL databases, Azure SQL Managed Instances, Fabric SQL databases and SQL Server in Azure VM) in the Fabric Spark runtime is now available. This connector enables Spark developers and data scientists to access and work with data from SQL database engines using a simplified Spark API. The connector will be included as a default library within the Fabric Runtime, eliminating the need for separate installation.
This is a preview feature and works with Scala and Python code against SQL Server-ish databases in Azure (Azure SQL DB, Azure SQL Managed Instance, and virtual machines running SQL Server in Azure).
