DP-900 Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the DP-900 Azure Data Fundamentals certification

How hard is the DP-900 exam?
DP-900 is a fundamentals-level exam but is considered slightly more technical than MS-900 or PL-900 because it covers specific Azure data services and requires knowing when to use each one. The most challenging questions involve choosing between similar services — Azure SQL Database vs SQL Managed Instance, Blob Storage vs ADLS Gen2, or Synapse dedicated pool vs serverless pool. The passing score is 700/1000.
Is DP-900 worth it in 2026?
Yes. Data engineering and analytics roles are among the fastest-growing in cloud computing. DP-900 validates foundational data literacy and is the entry point to the Azure data certification path (DP-203 for Data Engineering, DP-300 for Database Administration, DP-600 for Microsoft Fabric Analytics). It is increasingly valued for analysts, developers, and IT professionals working with Azure data services.
What Azure services are covered in DP-900?
The exam covers: core data concepts (structured/semi-structured/unstructured, file formats, database types, OLTP/OLAP); relational data (Azure SQL Database, SQL Managed Instance, SQL on VMs, Azure Database for MySQL/PostgreSQL); non-relational data (Azure Blob Storage, Azure Files, Azure Table Storage, Azure Cosmos DB with all APIs); and analytics (Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Azure Stream Analytics, Power BI).
Is Microsoft Fabric covered in the DP-900 exam?
Yes. Microsoft Fabric is now covered in the analytics domain (25-30%). Exam topics include: OneLake, Fabric Lakehouse vs Data Warehouse, shortcuts, Eventstream, Real-Time Analytics (KQL Database), and how Fabric integrates Power BI with data engineering. Microsoft Fabric is a major exam theme in 2025-2026.
Can I pass DP-900 with just Microsoft Learn?
Microsoft Learn covers the concepts well, but the real exam tests service selection under realistic scenarios where multiple options sound plausible. Practice tests help you recognize when to choose Cosmos DB vs SQL Database, when to use ADLS Gen2 vs Blob Storage, and when Synapse serverless pool is preferable to dedicated pool — distinctions that require applied judgment, not just memorization.
How long should I study for DP-900?
Most successful candidates spend 2-3 weeks preparing. We recommend reviewing each Azure data service on Microsoft Learn first, then spending the final week doing intensive practice questions. Focus on the analytics domain (Synapse, ADF, Databricks, Fabric) and non-relational data (Cosmos DB APIs, Blob Storage tiers) — these areas have the most nuanced exam questions.
