If so, and if you’re responsible for ingesting and transforming data, securing and managing an analytics solution, and monitoring and optimizing an analytics solution, be sure to check out this exam.

 

If this is your skill set, we have a new Microsoft Certification for you.

You should work closely with analytics engineers, architects, analysts, and administrators to design and deploy data engineering solutions for analytics.
