Nowadays im using Azure Data Catalog Gen1
I saw that Azure Data Catalog Gen2 is in preview...
If i create a gen2, the cost is free?
Thanks
Azure Previews are at no cost. PREVIEWS ARE PROVIDED "AS-IS," "WITH ALL FAULTS," AND "AS AVAILABLE," AND ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENTS AND LIMITED WARRANTY.

What are the sources/datasets are supported in Azure Data Share?
Does it support?
Blob storage
Azure Files
Queues Storage
Table storage
Disk storage
Looking at step 7 here and from the REST API documentation, I believe currently following sources are supported:
Azure Blob Storage
Azure Data Lake Gen 1
Azure Data Lake Gen 2
I would not be surprised if more data sources are supported down the road considering the service is in preview currently.
We have a number of projects based on ADLA+ADLS Gen1 and we recently noticed that prices for Gen1 are not available here any more. Also ADLA isn't listed in the Gen1->Gen2 migration guide.
Googling brought no relief, so seeking for advise and insights re:
Will ADLA support ADLS Gen2?
Will ADLS Gen1 will be discontinued?
Will ADLA be discontinued?
1.As of now, ADLA does not support ADLS Gen2, there is already a user voice here. You can upvote for it.
2.For ADLS Gen1 will be discounted or not, there is a link about this as following:
As of now there are no plans to retire ADLS gen 1. However it's recommended to migrate to Gen2 as most of the latest features and improvements will be rolled out to Gen2.
3.Based on 1, if Microsoft supports 1 as per the user voice, then ADLA will be not retired. But not very sure.
Hope it helps.
Azure Data Lake Storage Gen1 will be retired on Feb 29, 2024. MS are not investing in ADLA.
Customers were recommended migrate Azure Data Lake Storage Gen1 to Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 and ADLA to an alternate framework such as Azure HDInsight, Azure Synapse Analytics or Azure Databricks.
I am using ADF to connect to sources and get data into Azure Data Lake store. After getting data into Data Lake Store, I want to do some transformation, aggregation and use that data in SSRS reports and also for creating Cubes.
Can anyone suggest me which will be the best option (Azure Data Lake Analytics or Azure SQL DW) ?
I am looking here to make a decision on to take which one after Data lake.
There are no more Azure SQL DW. What we have now are Azure Synapse (same as Azure DW) and Azure Synapse Analytics (instead of Azure Datalake analytics). Microsoft is stopping support (develop) USQL and Azure Datalake analytic. If volume of your data is huge and you want use Polybase technology the best choice is Azure Synapse and Azure Synapse Analytics. You can rich your ADF by using Databricks to do analytics stuff. By using Polybase you can do ELT instead of ETL.
Microsoft Azure is not anymore investing on Azure Data Lake Analytics (ADLA) , you can evidently see that number of enhancements /updates in last couple of years are almost none in ADLA. While on the other side Azure SQL Data Warehouse is their flagship service ( recently names as azure synapse analytics) and hence getting enhanced and updated very fast. Synapse is based on MPP architecture and provides all required capabilities of big data computing.
What is the size of your data? Azure Data Lake is more meant for petabyte size big data processing and Azure SQL Data Warehouse for large relational DWH solutions (starting from 250/500 GB and up).
With Azure Data Lake you can even have the data from a data lake feed a NoSQL database, a SSAS cube, a data mart, or go right into Power BI. With Azure SQL Datawarehouse you can have cubes, Power BI reports and SSRS
If you need SQL Server Reporting Services, Integration Services (and you have complex SSIS logic), and Analysis Services (SSAS), you may better consider an Azure SQL VM.
I have a Free trial Azure account. While creating Data Lake Store account ,there is an option "Pricing: Pay As You Go". If i select "Pay As You Go" , it will charge me for this storage account??
Yes, as #JasonYe-MSFT said, and you can see what you can do with Azure for free, which list all of Azure free services that not includes Data Lake Store.
I am under the impression that the Azure Data Lake Store does not currently offer any encryption at rest (the way Azure Blob Storage does). I managed to found some vague mention of this on the official website, suggesting this is coming soon.
Is this your understanding as well? Does this cover the databases stored under the Azure Data Lake Analytics as well?
Actually encryption is available in preview on ADL Storage right now. If you contact us we can give you access to the preview.
Azure Data Lake Store Encryption is currently Generally Available, not in preview any more. You can specify encryption at rest when creating ADLS in portal. Options are these:
