Thanks for sharing this!
I applied for the Beta exam but haven’t received any notification yet. Do you know if Databricks has already started sending updates to applicants?

I got an update that, my application was REJECTED successfully. They asked to apply again. It was heart breaking. I was expecting that databricks will give me free coupon 😞 But now I feel little fortunate at least they responded to me LOL

Hello everyone,

I have one question:

- If the Beta exam was made at the beginning of Setember, when do you think the final version will be available?

Best regards
