I recently passed the Databricks Certificed Data Engineer Professional. This is a step up from the Associate level data engineer certification from Databricks. The video course from the Databricks Academy with the associated notebooks is a must when preparing for this certification. I collected links to blog posts and documentation to help me revise, which I am sharing here.
The exam guide was updated on 1st April 2024 – be sure to check for changes when you are preparing to take this certification. I’ll be using the information from this one as it is the latest at the time of writing.
Here are the links to the blog articles and documentation that I collected, separated by exam section.
Links by Exam section
- Databricks Tooling
- Data Processing (Batch processing, Incremental processing, and Optimization
- Data Modelling
- Security & Governance
- Monitoring & Logging
- Testing & Deployment
There are 60 questions in total in the exam, so 6 questions for a section earning up to 10% of the total score. Sections 4 to 6 together carry equal weight as the Data processing section.
Read my post on the Databricks ML Professional certification, includes some useful resources for preparing for this exam.
Good luck on your Databricks Certificed Data Engineer Professional journey!
