MicrosoftAZ-204 to AI-200 - why????? What a terrible decision. Is Microsoft so desperate that we have to lose the one certification that allowed devs to understand Azure architecture???
Devs don't care about all that AI non-sense, there is no real reason why someone wanting to show their skills on things like databases and message queues would have to endure reading about AI.
Absolutely, 100% terrible decision. I'm done with Microsoft certifications.
I understand your frustration and I'm in total agreement - wtf are they thinking here.
It's like the Az-800/801 going into one certification the az-802 - so, if they don't allow us to renew and FORCE us to take the 802 exam, then we would have paid a total of £360 in exam fee's in just over a year (depending on how quickly you earned both exams) AND we would only have the original certification for one year. Say if we cannot take the az-802, then we lose the certification.

MicrosoftHello, the update to the Windows Hybrid Certification exam is designed to support you in staying current with evolving skills, while simplifying the journey with a single, streamlined exam. If you’ve already earned the certification by completing Exam 800 or 801, there’s no need to take the new Exam 802. Simply renew your certification through the new 802 renewal assessment before the expiration date of the previous one, just as you would have with the previous version.
