This article explains how to use the End-to-end Real-Time Intelligence sample solution to automatically create a collection of sample RTI components. It lets you explore the main features of Real-Time Intelligence using sample data. It provides a comprehensive end-to-end solution, demonstrating how Real-Time Intelligence components work together to stream, analyze, visualize, and alert real-time data in a real-world context.
Tip
To implement this solution with your data, follow the end-to-end tutorial.
The sample data sets help you understand how to use Real-Time Intelligence components. The sample data sets include:
- Bike rental data: Contains London-based bike movements, occupancies, and tracks user patterns.
- Stock ticker data: Contains sample S&P 500 stock ticker data.
- Workspace monitoring: Contains sample data for monitoring workspace performance and usage.
Important
The Eventhouse generated through the Workspace Monitoring sample is a standard Eventhouse populated with sample monitoring data. This sample is intended solely for exploration and learning. It differs from a production Workspace Monitoring Eventhouse in the following ways:
- It is not read-only.
- It is not an exact representation of a real monitoring database.
- It does not include full raw log tables or update policies.
- Some data is static and represents a one-time snapshot, only Semantic Model Logs are streamed continuously. See Workspace Monitoring for more information.
The sample end-to-end solution includes these RTI components:
-
Eventstream: An Eventstream is the engine for data ingestion and processing of your real-time data into Microsoft Fabric. You can transform your data and route it via filters to various destinations. Read more about event streams.
-
Eventhouse: An Eventhouse is where data is stored and analyzed. An Eventhouse is designed to handle real-time data streams efficiently. An Eventhouse can hold one or more KQL databases. They're tailored to large volumes of time-based, streaming events with structured, semi structured, and unstructured data. Read more about Eventhouse.
-
KQL Database: A KQL Database is where data is stored and managed. It allows you to query data in real-time, providing a powerful tool for data exploration and analysis. The KQL database supports various data policies and transformations. Read more about KQL databases.
-
KQL Queryset: A KQL Queryset is used to run queries, view, and customize query results on data from a KQL queryset.
-
Real-Time Dashboard: A Real-Time Dashboard provides an up-to-the-second snapshot of various goals and data points in a collection of tiles. Each tile has an underlying query and a visual representation. It allows you to visualize data in real-time, providing insights and enabling data exploration. Read more about Real-Time dashboards.
-
Power BI: Use Power BI to create real-time reports that display data from Eventstreams and KQL Databases managed by Real-Time Intelligence.
-
Activator: is a no-code experience in Microsoft Fabric for automatically taking actions when patterns or conditions are detected in changing data.
These steps show how to create an end-to-end sample using the bike rental sample data.
-
Select Workloads from the left navigation bar, and then Real-Time Intelligence.
-
On the Real-Time Intelligence samples tile, select Get started to open the end to end experience.

-
In the Create samples window, select Get started with bike rental data.
:::image type="content" source="media/sample-end-to-end-solution/create-end-to-end-samples.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the Create samples window showing the bike rental data and Get started button.":::
-
Select the sample items to create. By default, all items are selected.
[!NOTE] Real-Time Dashboard, Report, Queryset, and Activator are optional and can be cleared. However, we recommend creating the entire component set for the best experience.

-
Set the Destination Location for the sample components. By default, the items are created in the current workspace. Select a different workspace from the dropdown list if needed.
-
Select Create to create the sample components. The progress window shows the status of the creation process.

-
When the sample data is ready, start exploring by selecting Open Eventhouse or Open Folder.

-
To explore the sample data at any time, open the workspace and browse to the Bike_sample folder.

-
Select Bike_Eventhouse, Bike_Eventstream, Bike_Queryset, Bike_Activator, or Bike_Dashboard and explore the sample data. After you open each item for the first time, it appears in the left navigation bar for easy access.
