How to THRIVE as a Microsoft Fabric Analytics Engineer

Our DP-600 exam preparation course now has over 200,000 views, and we successfully helped 100's (maybe thousands!) to pass the exam. BUT, from speaking with a lot of people in the community, a lot of people are not clear on what to do next...

You will need hands-on experience and to focus on the things that really move the needle in analytics engineering:
- your ability to build and maintain robust systems
- implementing version control and ci/cd patterns
- data modelling in a Lakehouse and Data Warehouse
- data validation

Such a good list of things that break pipelines, it's hard to explain this to users, but often they are the ones requesting or adding this complexity. Another great video!

I like your vision for data. Vision is the single most important point for a company before tackling technical matters. Unfortunately, this vision is often lacking in many companies. Your video could be an excellent starting point.
