Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.
Azure data lake storages are big data storages. Data engineers usually use them to dump raw data there and then from there ETL pipelines will be created to take that data and transform it to generate meaning full data out of it and finally load in Data ware house systems such as Azure Synapse Analytics.
Once data is available in Datawarehouse systems we can either populate that data on to reports directly or we can create tabular model using Azure Analysis services on top of it. And then from tabular model we can take data to reports using power BI.
Azure data factory or Azure Synapse pipelines can be used to create ETL pipelines.
Azure Synapse Analytics will also gives capability to query data on data lake storages directly using SQL runtime or Spark runtime. Power BI can also directly connect with Azure Synapse Analytics to generate reports.
