Azure certified Data Engineer is the professional who is responsible to make the raw data available to Data Scientists and Analysts so that they could work upon it. Without Data Engineers, there couldn’t be any Data Scientist. So, you should know that Data Engineer jobs are shooting up in the year 2021. And if you wish to become a Data Engineer certified in Azure, then you must have to clear 2 exams named DP-200 and DP-201, to get the certification named: Microsoft certified Azure Data Engineer Associate. But coming February 2021, Microsoft will change that and enforce only one exam which will contain the syllabus of both the exams together in a single exam named DP-203.
