What should be used to transform and visualize data in a Fabric notebook with high volume items?

Using the PySpark library in a Fabric notebook is ideal for transforming and visualizing high-volume data due to its powerful distributed processing capabilities. PySpark is designed to handle large-scale data processing and analytics, allowing users to work with enormous datasets efficiently. Unlike traditional data manipulation libraries such as pandas, which operate primarily in memory and are limited by the resources of a single machine, PySpark can distribute tasks across a cluster of computers. This enables it to harness the processing power of multiple machines, making it well-suited for big data workloads.

Additionally, PySpark integrates seamlessly with various data sources and formats, enabling robust data transformations and the ability to perform complex analytical queries. With its support for parallel processing, users can achieve significant performance improvements when working with high volume data.

The other options may not be as effective for high-volume data. Pandas, while excellent for smaller datasets, may struggle with memory limitations when handling very large volumes. A Microsoft Power BI report is more focused on visual representation rather than the actual data transformation process, although it can consume data transformed in a PySpark environment. Using a SQL database engine might provide some benefits in data management and querying, but it doesn't offer the same level of distributed processing capability that PySpark provides for transforming and
