I’m thrilled to share that I recently passed the DP-600 certification exam, and I want to share my journey to help others in the community who are also preparing for it. I hope my experience provides you with some helpful insights and inspires you to reach your own goals! Here’s what worked for me: 1. Microsoft Learn Portal: This was my go-to resource. I focused on completing the DP-600 study guide, which includes excellent lab exercises that reinforce the core concepts. It’s incredibly hands-on! ➡️ Microsoft Learn - DP-600 Guide 2. Will Needham's YouTube Videos: Will's videos were game-changers for me. His in-depth explanations of the core concepts and exam structure really helped clarify things. His exam-focused approach made the difference in my preparation. ➡️ Will Needham's DP-600 Playlist 3. Skool Community Portal: To dive deeper into specific topics, I turned to the Skool Community portal. It’s a great place to further understand concepts covered in Will's videos and to get additional resource support. ➡️ Skool Community Portal - Microsoft Fabric 4. Microsoft Practice Test: The practice test on Microsoft Learn was invaluable in gauging my understanding and readiness for the exam. ➡️ Microsoft Practice Test 5. MeasureUp Practice Test: I invested in a 30-day subscription to MeasureUp’s practice tests, and it was worth every penny. The detailed explanations for each question helped me identify areas where I needed more study. I took the test 2-3 times to solidify my knowledge. 6. Microsoft Exam Readiness Zone Videos: After covering all the above, I watched the exam readiness zone videos to understand the overall exam objectives. These videos helped me review the key topics right before taking the exam. ➡️ Exam Readiness Zone

Hello. I am wondering if you can create a table from a view in the SQL Analytics endpoint in the Lakehouse. I am receiving errors around permissioning but I cannot tell how to fix the permissions. Here is the error message below: "The external policy action 'Microsoft.Sql/Sqlservers/Databases/Schemas/Tables/Create' was denied on the requested resource." Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Has anybody tried Lakehouse with Apache Iceberg table format storage? Any suggestions.

Hey everyone! Last week, I had the opportunity to present at the London Fabric User Group on the topic of "Life after DP-600 - How To Thrive as a Microsoft Fabric Analytics Engineer" - photo courtesy of @Edward Ritchie - thanks Ed! This week (Tuesday eve, West US time) I'll be doing the same talk at the Silicon Valley Fabric Meetup group - it's an online event that I think anyone can sign up for, so check it out: https://www.meetup.com/silicon-valley-microsoft-fabric/events/301865641/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events This afternoon (4pm, UK Time), I'm doing an Onboarding Call in the Fabric Dojo community, introducing new members to the community. So if you want to sign up for the Dojo today, you can get a near-instant onboarding 🙂 Then next week, we have European Fabric Conference to look forward to - so probably lots of new announcements on Fabric! I'm also working on re-starting the old YouTube account (I remembered my password! 😉) - so look forward to that in the next few weeks - lots of new, hopefully regular, videos coming soon! What are you up to this week? Anything interesting??

Since Schemas now been introduced to Lakehouse as a preview, is it okay to go for the medallion architecture within the same Lakehouse with schemas of Bronze, Silver and Gold? Not very sure with regards to best practices for this
