Hi everyone, I was thinking for the last couple days about a post on this topic, as I was personally really concerned about the change in the study guide that took place on the 15th of November (I took an exam a week after). Like, what exactly has changed? Does deletion of pyspark mean increase in expected proficiency of SQL, or rather DAX? If Real-Time Intelligence (RTI) is not a part of the examination, why should I know KQL? Since admin governance has been almost completely deleted, what should I still need to know in that regard? To get one thing out of the way: I believe it still doesn't hurt to know a bit about all Fabric tools/experiences, even if it is more of an "overview" (Data Science is probably the exception and can be ommited). I got 1 or 2 pyspark questions in my exam, but they were general. Same with capacities - I got one question there, relatively general as well (not sure even which of these were graded, as MS continuously assess "psychometrics" by including some questions that are still in test phase). I heard some people had RTI-related questions, even though it is out of the study guide for quite some time. So, focus on study guide, but have an overview of all the Fabric infrastructure, even if it means that you know it exists and have basic knowledge how it works. ------ Now the "perspective": I believe that it is important to look from a higher vantage on 3 exams: DP-700 DP-600 and PL-300. While PL-300 remains a PBI-centered exam and will most likely stay constant due to maturity of PBI and a vast userbase, I believe DP-exams are evolving to create a sort of spectrum for "Fabric other than PBI". Evolving is key here: DP-500 and DP-600 (till November 15th) were sort of "Fabric-all" middle-level examinations, that tried to cover pretty much everything apart from data science. Due to the scope, questions had to be relatively general. My (subjective) guess is that with the rollout of DP-700 (still in beta) Microsoft is shifting DP-600 to be more analytical in scope. Admin governance, PySpark and RTI were moved to DP-700.

Hey everyone! In case you missed the announcement at Europe FabCon Microsoft are releasing a new certification pathway, this time for Data Engineers. If you pass the DP-700 exam, you will become a certified Fabric Data Engineer (Associate). Today is the day the DP-700 exam enters the Beta phase. What does this mean? A Microsoft beta phase exam, normally: - involves a heavy discount on the Exam price - asks you to provide feedback on the exam and the questions contained - some of the questions are 'less refined' let's say, so you have to expect this! - normally you have to wait several months to get your results More links: - DP-700 Study Guide - Exam homepage for the DP-700 (book your Beta exam, when it becomes available). So who is looking to take this exam? Are you going to take the Beta exam? Or wait until the exam reaches GA?

Hi everyone. The submission window for FREE DP-600 voucher requests opened an hour ago!... Make sure to submit a request before the vouchers run out. Check here 👍

Hi Everyone, I've connected D365 to Fabric using FabricLink which gets the D365 data into Fabric very nicely but is on a 20-30 minute delay. For some reports I need almost live data (1 minute ish refresh), does anyone know a way of changing the refresh frequency for certain tables or any other options? Thanks
