Azure Data Engineering with AI

Azure Data Engineering with AI

Microsoft Azure runs the data backbone of half the Fortune 500 — and Azure Data Engineers earn ₹8-15 LPA at entry level. This two-month program walks you through every service you'll touch on the job: Data Factory pipelines, Synapse Analytics, Databricks on Azure, Data Lake Gen2, Stream Analytics, and Cosmos DB. Plus AI integrations via Azure ML and Cognitive Services so you can build the kind of pipelines hiring managers are actually paying for in 2026. Prepares you fully for the DP-203 certification.
