I had an opportunity to read Azure Data Engineer Associate Certification guide.The guide is a comprehensive handbook for all the key topics in DP-203 syllabus.The book offers readers step by step guidance by exploring basic to advance topics in a pragmatic way. One of the interesting things about this book is the practical hand-on approach, with various examples which help to understand the topics in depth.This book seems to be helpful for the Data engineers who are not only preparing for the DP - 203 exam but also are aactively working with Azure Data stack. Lastly, the supplementary practice material is quite helpful.

This book provides a complete guide for the fundamentals needed for an Azure Data Engineer as well as providing detailed explanations with demos. It covered the basics of Azure to using Databricks and Azure Data Factory as well as transformations, batch processing, and stream processing. All the topics covered should help in passing the certification.

This book provides a step by step guide for getting started and breaks down the fundamentals needed to build this skillset by not only the detailed explanations, but also by showing samples of each topic being discussed, which I particularly thought was most helpful.

I was trying to do the certification in parallel to my existing full time job. I must have easily spent 2-3 months reading concepts and blogs online. I got this book and now I realize it would have been much easier if i had read this book first.There are many topics in the Data security and Optimizations chapters that I just couldn't find enough information online or it was vice versa that there was so much information that I didn't know what to focus on.This book explains the exact concept with just the right amount of information and provides links for additional reading. Perfect for people like me balancing work and certification.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
