# Fabric Lakehouse Performance remediate
Systematic toolkit for diagnosing and resolving performance issues in Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse environments. Covers Delta table health, Spark compute tuning, query optimization, and automated maintenance workflows.
## When to Use This Skill
- Lakehouse queries are running slowly or timing out
- Delta tables have accumulated many small files (small file problem)
- Spark notebooks or jobs are underperforming
- Direct Lake semantic models have cold-start or transcoding delays
- SQL analytics endpoint queries are slow
- Table maintenance (OPTIMIZE, VACUUM) needs to be scheduled or automated
- V-Order, Z-Order, or resource profile configuration is needed
- Capacity throttling or concurrency issues are suspected
- Streaming ingestion is creating fragmented Delta tables
## Prerequisites
- Microsoft Fabric workspace with Lakehouse items
- Contributor or higher workspace role
- Fabric capacity (F2 or above) or Trial capacity
- For REST API automation: Microsoft Entra token for Fabric service
- For Spark commands: Access to Fabric notebooks or Spark Job Definitions
## Quick Diagnosis Checklist
When a user reports Lakehouse performance issues, work through these areas in order:
1. **Identify the symptom** — Slow reads, slow writes, capacity throttling, or query timeouts
2. **Check Delta table health** — File count, file sizes, V-Order status, partition layout
3. **Review Spark configuration** — Resource profile, autotune, shuffle partit
