Virtual Network Data Gateway Support for Fabric Pipeline, Dataflow Gen2 Fast Copy, and Copy Job (Generally Available)

This release delivers enterprise-grade security, performance, and reliability—empowering you to confidently run production workloads. It builds on the strong momentum and customer adoption seen during preview.

Why This Matters

Enterprises with sensitive or regulated data often need to move information securely between private networks and Microsoft Fabric; with VNET Data Gateway, you can:

  • Keep data private – Ensure your data never travels over public networks.
  • Connect faster – Use private endpoints and ExpressRoute for high-speed, low-latency connections.
  • Simplify operations – Manage secure data movement from one central gateway.

GA Highlights

1. Fabric Pipeline Copy with VNET Gateway – Copy data from private or network-isolated sources into Fabric, without opening public endpoints.

2. Fast Copy in Dataflow Gen2 – Accelerate data ingestion with optimized performance while staying compliant with enterprise security policies.

3. Copy Job Support – Run secure data movement jobs with minimal setup and consistent governance across workloads.

Get Started Today

Check out the Run a Fabric pipeline Copy Activity through the virtual network data gateway documentation to configure your gateway and start building secure, high-performance data integration flows today.
