Explanation

A data pipeline is the correct tool for copying data from an on-premises SQL Server database to a Fabric Warehouse. Data pipelines in Microsoft Fabric support on-premises data gateways, which are required to connect to on-premises sources like Database1. They provide a dedicated 'Copy Data' activity that moves data directly into a Warehouse destination. The other options are incorrect because: (A) Dataflow Gen1 is primarily designed for Power BI datasets and lacks direct Warehouse write support; (C) KQL querysets are for querying KQL/Eventhouse databases, not for data movement; (D) Notebooks can technically move data but require custom code and are not the intended or recommended solution for straightforward data copy scenarios from on-premises sources.
