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?

I hope it is ok to post it here. Valerie and her colleagues making videos about stuff you can meet in DP700, around spark and intersting settings. She is very welcoming and replying to questions even on her LI. YT link to her channel ENJOY <3
