Free DP-600 study notes inside community: www.skool.com/microsoft-fabri...
In this video (4 of 12 in the series), we explore the next part of the DP-600 Study Guide: Managing the Analytics Development Lifecycle.This includes the following:
- Implement version control for a workspace
- Create and manage a Power BI Desktop project (.pbip)
- Plan and implement deployment solutions
- Perform impact analysis of downstream dependencies from lakehouses, data warehouses, dataflows, and semantic models
- Deploy and manage semantic models by using the XMLA endpoint
- Create and update reusable assets, including Power BI template (.pbit) files, Power BI data source (.pbids) files, and shared semantic models
This video is part of the DP-600 Exam Preparation series: • DP-600 Exam Preparation
Note: this video is meant to serve as a light covering of the topics assessed as part of the exam. There is a mountain of possibilities and strategies when it comes to version control and deployment - I hope to cover more of this in the future on the channel!

Did you receive free DP-600 exam voucher today? To celebrate, let's go through version control and deployment in Fabric 😊 I'd be GRATEFUL if you dropped a LIKE, or a COMMENT - let me know what you think of the series so far! Have a great weekend everyone. Hopefully two more DP-600 videos next week 🙌

I am mostly Power BI Developer and Admin Tenant and I am feeling overwhelmed because of the material to learn to pass DP-600. Thanks to Will I have hope I will pass it, thanks a lot with this course and a lot of work you dedicated to prepare it!

@LearnMicrosoftFabric 16 күн бұрын

Ah sorry to the hear that :/ yeh DP-600 is a tough exam which covers a lot of different areas. I think it's normal to feel a little overwhelmed - I don't think anyone is an expert in all the areas covered. It's more of a generalist exam, which requires awareness about lots of topics, but I don't think it requires deep knowledge really about any of the topics. Feel free to join our community where there is lots of people in a similar boat going through the process: skool.com/microsoft-fabric

Another great video Will. Thank you I know exactly why you chose Power BI Reports in your Deployment Pipelines 😉. They're probably the most mature. I know we've discussed this issue on SKOOL, and still feel the same at the moment. Deployment through environments (whether using Deployment Pipelines or other methods) seems to have been poorly covered by Microsoft in their delivery of Fabric. Deployment Pipelines in particular has a long way to go before we can say it's Production ready, especially for Warehouses and parts of the data pipelines. Fabric is such an amazing platform, and i'm sure it will only improve over the coming months, but the deployment of Fabric Items is a big miss by the product team.

Thanks Matt! Yes I think it's early days in the Git/Deployment Pipelines journey for Fabric - hopefully the functionality gets improved quickly!

With the workspace explanation I understood why the branch is blocked at workspace level. Because you have to set a different branch for every workspace.

Hi, Thank you for the wonderful video and Topic. A small doubt. Rather than using .pbit File, why can't we use same .pbix file as a template to reuse our report, like creating multiple copies of template in .pibx format and reuse it ? Thank you

Great video Will! I have a question regarding the integration of Git and Deployment Pipelines. How would we effectively combine both features when managing three workspaces: dev, qa, and prod? Would it be appropriate to use one branch for each workspace in Git? Additionally, after deploying the report from dev to qa and prod using deployment pipelines, how would we utilize Git in QA and PROD environments? I understand that GuyInACube has already created a video demonstrating the use of Git for two workspaces, but I am uncertain about its integration with deployment pipelines.

@LearnMicrosoftFabric Ай бұрын

Thanks for watching. Yes, I put a slight caveat in the description, that this just covers the basic implementation of Git and Deployment Pipelines (enough for the DP-600). In reality there are lots of different strategies for version control and deployment, some of which I'll explore in more detail on the channel in the future definitely. Be careful if you combine both approaches. In general, I would say you only want ONE method of moving an item from Dev to Test. This can be achieved either through git branching or through the manual deployment pipeline in Fabric. If you do both at the same time, you run the risk of things getting out of sync. I personally prefer the first option, because it can be somewhat automated. Hope that makes sense?

When you are dealing with semantic model pipelines, how would you explain the difference between this and the medallion architecture? I get the latter is due to data quality/transformation. Folks tend to have a panic reaction about overhead and technical debt when hearing they need 3 layers x 3 deployment stages

@LearnMicrosoftFabric Ай бұрын

Thanks for the great question! In my view, deployment stages and medallion architecture have different core goals. In medallion, we are looking to progressively improve the quality and usefulness of our datasets. Deployment pipelines are mainly used to ensure any new things you develop don't break any of the existing things you have in production. Which combination you need depends of your requirements in your org. Some will see more value in one over the other. Some will need both. Hope that helps?

Hi since we add a reviewer earlier when making changes in policy why we do need to again it after creating pull request

@LearnMicrosoftFabric 28 күн бұрын

When setting up the policy, I was specifying who has the ability to perform a review (this might be several people in reality). When creating the pull request, I specify a particular person who I want to review it (from the list of approved reviewers. Hope that makes sense 👍

15:55: Looks like you didn't address why we don't want to delete the branch "in Fabric". Can you tell why?

@LearnMicrosoftFabric 6 күн бұрын

Ah yes, it's because if you delete the branch you can't switch back to the main branch, and eveything breaks.

Hi, I think I might've heard of something similar before. Be careful the file type of the image you are using in your profile. Retry and make sure you are using a PNG or JPG (and if one of those doesn't work, try the other one)
