I’m excited to share that I’ve ed my Azure Data Engineering exam!

I tried so hard to ✍️ this exam last year, but distractions here and there wouldn’t let me. My target was to score above 90%, but Microsoft flipped the script with questions I didn’t even bargain for 😔. Honestly, if it wasn’t for my solid SQL knowledge, I wouldn’t have scaled through.

As expected, data warehousing with Synapse made up the bulk of the questions, but I was surprised to see quite a number of questions on Azure Stream Analytics. To my surprise, there wasn’t a single question on Purview either.

I am really looking forward to the opportunities that comes with my data engineering skills

Congratulations to you
SQLwas my strength when I took certification exam from datacamp. I didn't pay for the certification, it was sponsored by I4G

Is the certification free? Cause I'm seeing it's expires 1 year later - next year 2026

You have to keep renewing it every year with 0 cost attached.
The cert isn't free. Microsoft charge Nigerians 80 dollars for it

Okay... It's a one time payment. Renewal is free.

Better than some that isn't free for renewal
Thank God say higher institutions exist long time ago cause if na now eh - the certs for dey expire after every four four years

The approach forces you to take the cert and the skill serious

Where did you take the exam, at home?

You have the option of taking it at home or in a Microsoft approved test centre.
To take the test at home you have to meet some conditions so I opted taking it the exam in Pearson Vue center

Congrats bro. It is nice.. but how was the quetions? I plan to do mine next month..

I really don't know why nairalanders keep mistaking me as a bro lol
I am a lady o.

If you really want to scale through your data warehousing knowledge( using Synapse) + SQL has to be strong
Try as much as you can to revise exam topics questions. Use the Microsoft learn documentation as a reference guide( very important)

The Cert cost isn't the problem but you need constant access to Azure subscription.
The problem is Microsoft gives free trial subscription but Nigerians aren't qualified for it

Please how can I you I want.to write the exam too, please how did you prepare for the exams?.Any suggestions in of materials.

Congratulations . Please you can send a message to me on [email protected]. Let’s discuss about the available opportunities for Azure Data engineering openings. Thank you

To prepare for the exam you have to learn azure data engineering concept first. Like SQL, data lakes, data security, data orchestration, data streaming, data warehousing et al. After which you can now start revising past questions using Microsoft learn and examtopics.

The biggest challenge is getting access to Azure subscription and Microsoft doesn't give Nigerians access to the free trial subscription

Congratulations 🎊 on your achievement and I want to tell you to never relent and keep going!

Thanks, I really appreciate
