I work at a consulting firm and next year I’m hopefully going to get booked on Data analytics engagements (starting with the business intelligence segment). One AD said it would be helpful to learn Azure cloud. Where should I start with that and what are some the things I should know/ be able to do in Azure cloud? I feel very confident with SQL and Powerbi and I’m decent with Python, but I don’t have a lot of technical knowledge with things like Azure Cloud.

I’m a self taught data engineer. Here’s the path I recommend.
Start with AZ 900 (Azure fundamental) -> DP 900 (data fundamentals) -> here you can branch into data engineer associate or data analyst associate -> data scientist associate

By the time you get past one or two associate certifications you have a good handle of azure data side of the house. What I did was jump into databricks certs which are 🔥🔥 rn

Dm me if you have any questions

Nah, go databricks imo. With DLT pipelines, databricks is coming for ADFs lunch. I think databricks will be far more relevant in the coming years, along with the fact it’s platform agnostic.
No point getting azure cert to be a data eng. worth getting cert if you wanna learn the platform

Hi all,

Those who have been promoted to AM1 in mid year promotion will they be made AM2 if they got 4 or 5 rating and will be condsidered for manager position in next cycle.

Staff 4 has been restructured to Senior 1. By that means shouldn’t I have been promoted from staff 4 to senior 2 as I joined at staff 4 in Feb 2020 and my promotion was due?
Even staff 3 peers around me got promoted to senior 1. How is it fair???
