@Ravi Dhanwani Well, I dedicated part of my Christmas time to studying for the exam. I just followed the Microsoft E-learning materials and scrolled through the whole Fabric documentation for additional information. As always, trying things on Fabric was crucial to understanding everything better 🙂 I would say that the effort was greater compared to the DP-600 because of the topics covered by the exam and because I am a Power BI guy 😄

@Antony Catella is right! 😄 in general, there seems to be no longer that extreme need to be super-expert in programming thanks to AI. HOWEVER, it is important to know the basics of the languages you use, even with Fabric and also with Copilot there to help you. Going back to your question: the code is moderately advanced; however, if you know the basics of Python, even without fully understanding the code, you can answer it by taking advantage of a bit of logic 🙂

Happy New Year, everyone! For sure, DP-700 (I just booked the exam for the 6th of January) :D

Hello @Antony Catella ! I think it went well but let's wait for the final result 😅 As already mentioned by other people online, the questions were all around these topics (here I just added a few comments about what I remember): - Optimization (VACUUM, OPTIMIZE, V-Order): how to optimize parquet files, delete old files, etc. - Monitoring (pipeline, semantic models, real-time): I remember one question about real-time monitoring, something like "where to find details when an error occurs". - Permissions (roles and sharing): questions on domain, workspace, and item-level roles (i.e. which role you need to modify items or to do specific things). - Data Ingestion (pipeline, real-time, shortcuts, cache): which is the best ingestion service in specific cases, questions on real-time ingestion, and shortcuts (especially regarding cache and when to use them). - Deployment pipeline & Versioning: no questions regarding GitHub/AzureDevOps, but several questions about Deployment Pipelines (i.e. when to use them, what items and metadata go from one level to the other, etc.). - Questions on coding (especially KQL; some questions about Spark and SQL). Questions were about query optimization, sorting, filtering, key creation, datatype conversion, merge. - No questions on Power BI, Power Query, or DAX. - Two use-cases (questions regarding item-level roles, ingestion, incremental refresh, shortcuts). In general, a lot of questions were about Real-Time (ingestion, query optimization, KQL syntax) so my suggestion is to read the Microsoft documentation in details. Moreover, for some questions, correct answers can only be given if you use some services every day because it's almost impossible to remember everything (e.g., where I can find something, where I have to click, etc.) Still in beta so I need to wait for GA to know the result 😀 we'll see!

@Julio Ochoa I don't know but I think that "400 GB" is the maximum memory limit for semantic models for F2048 SKU and not the actual storage space of P1. Anyway, online I finally found something in the Microsoft Documentation (Power BI Premium Per User - Power BI | Microsoft Learn regarding the PPU licence): 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘗𝘗𝘜 𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 100-𝘛𝘉 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘢 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘺. Could this be the final answer to our doubts? 😀

@Julio Ochoa Hey Julio, do you have any updates? 🙂

Hello DoKyung! If you already have a semantic model connected to some data sources, you can publish it in a Workspace with a Fabric Capacity with no worries. Alternatively, you can change your Workspace capacity to a Fabric one and preserve your semantic model there. On the other hand, if you moved your data sources in Fabric (into a Lakehouse or a Warehouse), you need to re-build your semantic model or change the connections inside it to point to Fabric tables instead of the original sources 🙂

Hello Camilo! For Fabric homepage, you must go here ---> Microsoft Fabric If you are in the Power BI experience, you should see Fabric options on the bottom left corner 🙂
