IRiS - Lakehouse Automation Software
by Ignition Data
Automate the Silver layer of your Lakehouse. Guided modelling, native code, under 15 min/table.
IRiS is Lakehouse Automation Software, native to Microsoft Fabric.
IRiS automates the Silver integration layer of your Lakehouse. It guides your team through the modelling decisions, then generates production-ready code natively for Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, and Databricks. Source schema to deployable code in under 15 minutes per table.
The Silver layer challenge
The Silver layer is where Lakehouse projects earn their credibility. Business keys must be identified, relationships mapped, history preserved, PII classified, and lineage captured from the start. Senior architects typically spend weeks on this interpretive work. IRiS turns weeks into minutes.
What's new in IRiS v3
IRiS v3 combines guided modelling and native code generation in a single product. Native support for Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, and Databricks. The supporting ontology assets are delivered as a byproduct of the modelling work, shaped for Microsoft Fabric IQ, with Snowflake Semantic Views and Databricks Unity Catalog integrations alongside.
How it works
1. Source profiling: IRiS connects to your source and analyses schema, keys, cardinality, and PII patterns.
2. Guided model design: IRiS proposes entities, relationships, and descriptive properties. Your team reviews and approves.
3. Native code generation: IRiS generates production-ready code for Fabric, Snowflake, or Databricks.
4. Deployment: artefacts commit to Azure DevOps for your existing CI/CD pipeline.
Why IRiS
• Native to Microsoft Fabric. Available on the Microsoft commercial marketplace.
• Governance built in, not bolted on. Every modelling decision captured in a portable JSON record.
• Deterministic code generation. Same input, same output, every time. Safe to deploy, safe to audit.
• Native Fabric IQ integration. The supporting ontology assets are delivered as a byproduct of the modelling process, shaped for the Fabric IQ ontology REST API. No manual ontology authoring.
• Works inside your existing stack. Integrates with Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Factory, Azure DevOps, Microsoft Purview, and Azure Key Vault. No replatforming.
