Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Why Learn About Data in the Cloud?
Let’s face it: every app you use, every meme you share, and every online purchase you make generates mountains of data. But what happens to all that info? How do companies turn raw numbers into smart decisions? That’s where cloud data platforms like Microsoft Azure come in—and where your journey begins.
The DP-900 is more than a certificate. It’s proof that you understand how modern businesses manage their most valuable resource—information. Let’s break down what the Azure Data Fundamentals (DP-900) course covers, and why these skills matter for your future.
What Will You Actually Learn?
Core Data Concepts
You’ll start the journey by learning about these building blocks of data, then you can tackle more advanced challenges.
- Relational Data (SQL): Imagine tidy spreadsheets with rows and columns. You’ll learn how relational databases store structured data and why they’re used for things like banking apps or customer records.
- Non-Relational Data (NoSQL): Not all data fits neatly into tables. Social media posts, images, and sensor data need flexible homes. NoSQL databases handle this kind of data, and you’ll see when to use them versus relational databases.
- Databases, Data Warehouses & Data Lakes: Not all data storage is created equal! The DP-900 helps you understand the differences.
Understanding these concepts is like knowing which bag to pack for each kind of trip—so your data stays organized and accessible.
Azure Data Services
Next, you’ll get familiar with Microsoft’s Azure Data Services. These are cloud-based data tools that help people store, manage, and analyze data—kind of like a super-smart filing system in the cloud.
You’ll see how each tool solves different problems, and why choosing the right one matters in real-world tech jobs. Our UC2IT® Skills Training and support will give you the foundation and understanding of core Data concepts to help prepare you for DP-900.
