This practice test contains specially curated questions that will test your knowledge and give you 100% confidence in clearing the DP-203 examination. The questions being asked are created directly from Azure Documentation or present an application of data engineering scenarios.

These questions are backed by thorough explanations and links to Microsoft documentation from where the question was framed. By taking these tests, you will be confident in facing any questions asked in the DP-203: Microsoft Azure Data Engineering Certification Test. The tests are regularly updated with Microsoft's addition or removal of topics in the testing areas.

Why take Microsoft Certified: Azure Data Engineer Associate certification

Azure Data Engineers helps ensure that data pipelines and stores are high-performing, efficient, organized, and reliable, given business requirements and constraints. They deal with unanticipated issues swiftly, and they minimize data loss. They also design, implement, monitor, and optimize data platforms to meet the data pipelines' needs.

All questions have a detailed explanation and link to reference materials to support the answers, ensuring the solutions' accuracy.

The objectives covered in this course are

· Design and implement data storage (40-45%)

· Design and develop data processing (25-30%)

· Design and implement data security (10-15%)

· Monitor and optimize data storage and data processing (10-15%)

Candidates for this exam should have subject matter expertise in integrating, transforming, and consolidating data from various structured and unstructured data systems into a structure that is suitable for building analytics solutions, alongside the knowledge of data processing languages such as SQL, Python, or Scala. They need to understand parallel processing and data architecture patterns.

Why getting MS Azure DP-200 and DP-201 Certifications?

The technology market is experiencing a shortage of data engineering talent. Data Engineer was the fastest-growing job role in 2019 (growing by 50% in one year) and is set to be one of the most sought-after roles also in 2020 and 2021, as demand for data storing, data processing and data infrastructure management skills soars.

Among all data engineering certifications, MS Azure DP-200 (Implementing an Azure Data Solution) and DP-201 (Designing an Azure Data Solution) Certifications are definitely worth pursuing and, once obtained, lead to the MS Azure Data Engineer Associate Certification. Microsoft has been a global data technology leader for several years, and has moved very aggressively into the cloud with MS Azure services. Today Microsoft has the second-highest market share among cloud providers, and Azure’s YOY revenue growth was reported to be 76% in February 2020.

So, whether you plan to take Microsoft Azure DP-200 Certification and DP-201 Certification tests to change your career, seize the opportunity for a promotion or simply brush up and prove your expertise in an increasingly hot and in-demand IT area, the practice tests in this course will greatly help you succeed.

What is this course about?

The course consists of three complete, timed tests. That's 83 questions covering all the skills assessed during both DP-200 Certification and DP-201 Certification exams and presenting the same level of difficulty your will face in the real exams. Each test contains 50 questions, just like the real exams, and you'll be timed and graded on your results.

The benefits of taking the practice tests are multi-fold and include the following:

• Self-assess your preparation at any time, tracking your progresses

• Get familiar with the type of questions you will find in both exams

• Practice and perfect your test-taking strategies, e.g. test timing

• Identify knowledge gaps and strengths, to make your study work more efficient

• Build exam-taking endurance and reduce anxiety

The practice tests cover the following Azure services, from both the Azure data solution implementation and design perspectives:

• Azure SQL Database

• Azure Cosmos Database

• Azure Data Lake Storage

• Azure Synapse Analytics

• Azure Blob Storage

• Azure Data Factory

• Azure Stream Analytics

• Azure Databricks

All three practice tests are formatted just like the real questions would be in Microsoft official exams, which each correct answer linking back to official Microsoft documentation for confirmation, so you can immediately locate relevant information, cementing your knowledge. However, please be aware that, although the skills assessed are the same, each practice test in this course will be a multiple-choice only, while the real exams will include other types of question as well. Finally, by purchasing this course, you will get unlimited access to all questions, with the possibility to take the practice tests as many times as you like.
