Hey everyone, it's been a busy few months working on the DP-700 content! But it's mostly finished now - best of luck to everyone taking the exam in the coming days and weeks! What are you working on this week? Also... I'll be posting more in this community again going forward 😀 ESPECIALLY as next week is FabCon - I was speaking to some Microsoft people last night and there are LOTS of interesting announcements to be made! Some questions for you ahead of FabCon: - Is anyone going to FabCon this year? I'm not going this year (maybe EU FabCon later in the year!) - What feature are you waiting for/ excited for? Let's hear it! Next week, I plan to post quite a bit with all the updates! I also have plans to do some collabs with Microsoft PMs for some interesting new features for the channel, so watch this space 😀

Hey everyone, for those of you who are asking about the Fabric Free Trial (see this previous thread), I just received the following update from Microsoft: "To answer your questions, we have stopped supporting Fabric trial capacities on newly created Entra and M365 tenants, which many users previously set up for testing and learning. Unfortunately, the ease of creating these tenants for trial capacities led to usage patterns that we cannot continue to support, so we are unable to provide trials for this class of tenant. We recommend initiating Fabric trial capacities on tenants associated with your work or school organization—rather than spinning up new tenants. Trial capacities remain available on established tenants that demonstrate multi-product usage of Microsoft services." So I believe the methods you can take now are either: 1) If you work for a company that uses Fabric - use your company's tenant 2) If not, or you don't want to use your company tenant, purchase an F2 (or higher) for practicing/learning, and pause/ resume as and when you need it. For reference, an F2 is ~ $0.35 per hour. Thoughts?
