Choosing Names in Microsoft Fabric

Nikola Ilic asks, what’s in a name?

My dear Microsoft Fabric friends – if you’ve ever opened a workspace and seen “Lakehouse”, “Lakehouse 1”, “lh_test_v2”, and “NewLakehouse_DELETE_ME” all sitting next to each other, this post is for you

Three weeks into a fresh Fabric tenant, things look great. Twelve weeks in, you’re staring at 47 workspaces, three of them called something like “Test – DO NOT USE”, and nobody on the team can remember which Lakehouse holds the actual production sales data.

I don’t know how Nikola has figured out my naming strategy so well. Click through for a systematic attempt to standardize naming for Fabric objects.
