Top use cases
Save the prompts you reuse and regenerate diagrams every time your stack changes.
Show ingestion via Data Factory/ADF or Event Hubs with SLAs
Diagram Synapse/Fabric processing and lakehouse zones
Highlight Purview governance and RBAC/Private Link
Summarize cost and capacity per workspace
Workflow that ships
Capture sources, ingestion methods, and landing zones (ADLS).
Add processing (Synapse/Fabric) and serving (Power BI/SQL) layers.
Ask AI to show governance via Purview, RBAC, and networking controls.
Export for architecture reviews with cost notes per workspace.
Prompt recipes
Copy, tweak, and save in your repo so regenerations stay consistent.
"Create an Azure diagram with Event Hubs ingest, ADLS layers, Synapse pipelines, Fabric notebooks, and Power BI. Add Purview and Private Link."
"Show medallion zones with Fabric Lakehouse, governance via Purview, and access for finance/marketing."
"Generate a secure analytics landing zone with hub-spoke networking and monitoring."
Quality checklist
Purview, RBAC, and Private Link are visible on data paths.
Medallion zones and SLAs are labeled.
Workspaces note cost/capacity expectations.
Power BI lineage is connected to semantic models.
Why use Datadef
Prompt-to-canvas in seconds
Generate React Flow diagrams from prompts, then tweak nodes, metadata, and z-index with live collaboration.
Always in sync
Save prompts alongside canvas versions so you can regenerate diagrams as schemas, services, or policies change.
Shareable and auditable
Export PNG/SVG for decks, or share live canvases with lineage, SLAs, and runbook links for reviewers.
Built for data teams
Support data mesh, lakehouse, and streaming patterns with typed nodes for tables, pipelines, services, and governance layers.

FAQ
How do I show Fabric and Synapse together?
Use lanes: ingestion, lakehouse, warehouse, semantic, BI. Place Fabric notebooks and Synapse jobs where they run.
What about networking controls?
Label Private Endpoints, firewalls, and VNet injections so reviewers see trust boundaries.
Can AI handle cost notes?
Yes. Include SKU info and schedule hints so AI can surface likely cost levers.
