Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to know SQL before starting the DP-900?
No prior SQL knowledge is required. While knowing basic queries can be helpful, the DP-900 focuses on the concepts and services rather than writing code. It is designed as an introductory level course.
What is the difference between DP-900 and AZ-900?
The AZ-900 covers general Azure cloud services (compute, networking, security). The DP-900 is a specialized fundamental course that focuses exclusively on data services, storage, and analytics workloads within Azure.
How long is the DP-900 exam and what is the pass mark?
The exam typically contains 40-60 questions and lasts about 60 minutes. Like most Microsoft Fundamentals exams, the passing score is 700 out of 1000.
Does this certification expire?
No, Microsoft Fundamentals certifications (like DP-900) do not expire and do not require renewal, unlike the Associate and Expert level certifications.
