One Microsoft Fabric announcement during Microsoft Ignite that I think should get more attention is the fact that Sustainability data solutions in Fabric is now Generally Available (GA).

For those who are not aware Sustainability data solutions in Fabric is one of solutions offered as part of the Industry Solutions workload. Which is now also GA and officially recognized as a Microsoft Fabric workload.

I intend to cover why I think this is significant in this post. Along the way I share some links.

It’s official – the Fabric Analytics certification is the fastest growing in Microsoft history!  But the associated DP-600 exam is a very broad syllabus, covering everything from data ingestion/transformation using T-SQL and KQL (for Real-time intelligence), to semantic modelling and managing a Fabric environment using CI/CD.

In this series of articles, I cover some of the key topics under each of the three syllabus areas (Maintaining Data Analytics Solutions, Prepare Data and Building Semantic models) with examples and scenarios. These are based on a DP-600 exam preparation guide prepared by Abu Bakar, which is available for free along with over 200 practice questions at MS Fabric Training (www.msfabrictraining.com).

This article is focused on Module 3 - Implement and manage semantic models - which comprises 25-30% of the overall exam syllabus
