enrichment through the cloud
ADF Components
ADF Logical Flow
ADF Process
1.Define Architecture: Set up objectives and
flow
2.Create the Data Factory: Portal, PowerShell,
VS
3.Create Linked Services: Connections to
Data and Services
4.Create Datasets: Input and Output
5.Create Pipeline: Define Activities
1. Design
Process
Define data
sources, processing
requirements, and
output also
management and
monitoring
Example - Churn
Azure Data Data Activity: a processing Pipeline: a logical
Factory: Set step group of activities
(Collection of (Hadoop job, custom code, ML model,
files, DB table, etc)

1. Run Add-AzureAccount and enter the user name and
password
2. Run Get-AzureSubscription to view all the
subscriptions for this account.
3. Run Select-AzureSubscription to select the
subscription that you want to work with.
4. Run Switch-AzureMode AzureResourceManager
5. Run New-AzureResourceGroup -Name
