    Could you create a sandbox for the online learning courses where people can do hand-on practices as found in DP-900?

    Hi,
    Thanks for providing this learning path. May I ask where we can find the exercises content? The exercise provides the steps to perform but how do we perform those steps if we don't have content in our instance of Azure Synapse Analytics workspace?
    Thanks

    Hi SandraMarin,

    I was supposed to ask a new question here until I saw this post. I've been following the DP-203 learning paths (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/dp-203) in order to hopefully pass the DP-203 exam, however, I find many of the Synapse Analytics modules to have exercises which don't define prerequisites, particularly not specifying where to get the data from or how to perform initial setup.

    An example is this where it mentions a "Lab 08" pipeline when nothing in the module points to where this pipeline can be obtained from:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-au/learn/modules/use-data-loading-best-practices-azure-synapse-analytics/9-exercise-implement-workload-management

    I've undergone the whole path for DA-100, AZ-900, and DP-900 and got accustomed to labs and exercises which either have a virtual lab environment within the module which can be launched or at least defines how to setup the environment on your own. I'm thinking I might just be missing something here and it is indicated somewhere?

    Any help would be appreciated as I'm struggling with this for a while. This will greatly help me in transitioning from AWS to Azure.
  • Nice you like it @mikeayus. Let us know your thoughts when you complete your first Azure Synapse Analytics learning path--or all of them 😉
