Frequently asked questions

How has DP-100 shifted recently?

A quarter of the exam is now optimizing language models for AI applications: prompt flows, fine-tuning choices and retrieval augmented generation in Azure AI Foundry, alongside the classic Azure Machine Learning workspace material.

Is DP-100 about data science theory?

No, it is about doing data science on Azure: workspaces, compute targets, jobs and pipelines, MLflow tracking and managed endpoints. It assumes you already know what a model is and tests where the platform fits in.

Note on domain weightings

Microsoft publishes weightings as ranges. The figures here use midpoints of the official ranges from the current DP-100 study guide.
