The F-Files: Mastering DP-700 Microsoft Fabric Mysteries
Proposed session for SQLBits 2026TL; DR
This is not your typical DP-700 prep session. Instead of dry lecture slides, we're transforming the essential knowledge tested on the exam into compelling mysteries and hands-on narratives.
Session Details
Welcome to The F-Files – where DP-700 exam mastery meets noir-inspired storytelling. In this engaging 50-minute session, the hosts decode Microsoft Fabric's most critical exam topics and real-world edge cases in a way that textbooks simply cannot.
This is not your typical DP-700 prep session. Instead of dry lecture slides, we're transforming the essential knowledge tested on the exam into compelling mysteries and hands-on narratives. From haunted clusters to Spark job conspiracies, from governance frameworks that catch exam candidates off-guard to performance optimization secrets hiding in plain sight – each segment uncovers the deeper mechanics of Fabric that distinguish exam passers from true practitioners.
If you're preparing for the DP-700 exam and tired of memorizing disconnected facts, this session is for you. We combine authentic exam-relevant knowledge with equal parts cosmic comedy and actionable technical insight. Expect the unexpected – because understanding why things work in Fabric is far more valuable than simply knowing what to click.
What You'll Take Away:
• DP-700 exam concepts explained through real-world problems and solutions
• Deep dives into Fabric edge cases that reveal foundational knowledge
• Governance and performance strategies that matter both for exams and production
• A fresh, entertaining framework for understanding complex Fabric architecture
Perfect for:
DP-700 candidates, Fabric practitioners, and anyone seeking a unique blend of exam prep and technical storytelling that actually sticks.
F-Files – the answers are out there.
