This feature is not currently available for Azure SQL Managed Instance or SQL Server instances.
What are Fabric mirrored databases?
Mirroring in Fabric provides an easy experience to speed the time-to-value for insights and decisions, and to break down data silos between technology solutions, without developing expensive Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) processes to move data.
With the most up-to-date data in a queryable format in OneLake, you can now use all the different services in Fabric, such as running analytics with Spark, executing notebooks, data engineering, visualizing through Power BI Reports, and more.
With Mirroring in Fabric, you don't need to piece together different services from multiple vendors. Instead, you can enjoy a highly integrated, end-to-end, and easy-to-use product that is designed to simplify your analytics needs, and built for openness and collaboration between technology solutions that can read the open-source Delta Lake table format.
Fabric mirrored databases technology
The Fabric mirrored database feature uses similar change feed technology as the Azure Synapse Link, and shares some system objects.
Note
Enabling Mirroring via the Fabric portal will create a changefeed database user, a changefeed schema, and several tables within the changefeed schema in your source database. Do not alter any of these system-managed objects.
SQL database in Microsoft Fabric
You can also create an SQL database in Microsoft Fabric. With SQL database in Fabric, your data is automatically accessible from other Fabric experiences. SQL database in Microsoft Fabric, which uses the same SQL Database Engine as Microsoft SQL Server and is similar to Azure SQL Database, inherits most of the Fabric mirroring capabilities from Azure SQL Database. Your SQL database in Fabric is automatically mirrored to OneLake and presented in a read-only, queryable format. You can use all the different services in Fabric, such as running analytics with Spark, executing notebooks, data engineering, visualizing through Power BI Reports, and more.
