Microsoft Fabric Data Warehouse now supports the powerful MERGE statement, streamlining data sync operations.
It enables seamless INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE logic in one atomic block—ideal for SCD and ETL workflows.
This long-awaited feature simplifies code, boosts performance, and aligns Fabric DW with enterprise SQL standards.
A major win for data engineers—Fabric just got more intuitive, efficient, and migration-friendly!
Why MERGE Matters
The MERGE statement allows you to:
Synchronize staging and target tables in one atomic operation
Handle Slowly Changing Dimensions (SCD) with ease (Types 0, 1, and 2)
Simplify ETL logic by combining INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE into a single block
Reduce code complexity and improve performance in large-scale transformations
