Attempting Data Engineer Associate with no real Databricks experience — is it doable?
1 year DE here. Comfortable with Python, SQL, and PySpark. My actual work shifted more toward GenAI/data tooling, so on Databricks I've hardly used anything. I haven't worked with things like: * Lakeflow Jobs * Auto Loader * COPY INTO * Unity Catalog * Governance/permissions * CI/CD/DABs * Spark monitoring/tuning For those who've taken the latest version, how much real-world Databricks platform experience did you have beforehand? Is hands-on practice and focused study enough, or are there topics that are difficult to grasp without working on production projects? I have 2 months time.
Recent changes in the databricks data engineer associate cert. Need help
I heard the recent addition of modules in the syllabus of the associate cert from the post of this sub. Can some body share experience who recently appeared for the associate level after the syllabus update. I have my schedule next week ? If possible please share resources in DM. 🙏🙏
Databricks beginner
Hi guys, I've decided to learn data engineering (Databricks) seriously after sleeping on it for a long time. I already have a good grasp of the basics: SQL, Python, database. I do a bit of data modeling with Power BI, and I have 1 project where I build a data pipeline on Databricks. I'm thinking about getting Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate, but I don't know where to start. There are also a lot of online courses, I don't know which one to take. A few videos I found on Youtube only talk about how to use the platform, which I think is not enough. I'd appreciate some tips on the tech stack & learning resources (book, video, courses...). Thank you!

The video teaches the correct Databricks syntax for indicating PII at the table level: `COMMENT CONTAINS_PII`, not the incorrect alternatives like `COMMENT PII` which applies only to columns.
