Validate your skills with our new certification for Microsoft Fabric Analytics Engineers
We’re looking for Microsoft Fabric Analytics Engineers to take our new beta exam. Do you have subject matter expertise in designing, creating, and deploying enterprise-scale data analytics solutions? If so, and if you know how to transform data into reusable analytics assets by using Microsoft Fabric components, such as lakehouses, data warehouses, notebooks, dataflows, data pipelines, semantic models, and reports, be sure to check out this exam. Other helpful qualifications include the ability to implement analytics best practices in Fabric, including version control and deployment.
If this is your skill set, we have a new certification for you. The Microsoft Certified: Fabric Analytics Engineer Associate certification validates your expertise in this area and offers you the opportunity to prove your skills. To earn this certification, pass Exam DP-600: Implementing Analytics Solutions Using Microsoft Fabric, currently in beta.
Is this the right certification for you?
This certification could be a great fit if you have in-depth familiarity with the Fabric solution and you have experience with data modeling, data transformation, Git-based source control, exploratory analytics, and languages, including Structured Query Language (SQL), Data Analysis Expressions (DAX), and PySpark.

Storing OPC UA Information Models in Azure Data Explorer
Most Azure users deploy Azure Data Explorer (ADX) for storing and analyzing OPC UA PubSub telemetry data sent from industrial sites via a cloud broker. For the last several years, customers have also added OPC UA PubSub metadata to ADX as documented here (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/using-azure-data-explorer-opc-ua-erich-barnstedt).
However, many customers are unaware that they can store entire OPC UA Information Models in ADX, imported from the UA Cloud Library (https://uacloudlibrary.opcfoundation.org).
This has several advantages:
OPC UA PubSub metadata only describes the semantics of the associated OPC UA PubSub telemetry data, but not the entire OPC UA Information Model where the data originally came from. However, customers want to have all semantic information in one location, ideally in the cloud for global access.
OPC UA PubSub metadata only includes a subset of the rich OPC UA semantics. For example, OPC UA complex type definitions or references to other data within the Information Model are not included but needed for deeper analysis of the telemetry data.
Customers want to be able to see what other telemetry data is available from their sites for potential publishing to the cloud and need the entire OPC UA Information Model to make a selection.
To get started with importing OPC UA Information Models into ADX, you first need an instance of ADX in your Azure subscription as well as a login to the UA Cloud Library, hosted by the OPC Foundation. You can get registered for accessing the UA Cloud Library for free from here: https://uacloudlibrary.opcfoundation.org/Identity/Account/Register
Once you have registered, you can browse the OPC UA Information Models you are interested in via the built-in browser accessible from here: https://uacloudlibrary.opcfoundation.org/Explorer
To get the unique ID of the OPC UA Information Models you are interested in, you can simply execute the “namespaces” REST API from here: https://uacloudlibrary.opcfoundation.org/infomodel/namespaces. For example, the “Robotics” Information Model has the unique ID 4172981173.
Configure an Azure Data Explorer callout policy for the UA Cloud Library by running the following query on your ADX cluster (make sure you are an ADX cluster administrator, configurable under Permissions in the ADX tab in the Azure Portal):
Then, from the Azure Portal UI of your ADX instance, simply run the following query to import the OPC UA Information Model into ADX:
let uri=’https://uacloudlibrary.opcfoundation.org/infomodel/download/<insert information model identifier from cloud library here>’;
let headers=dynamic({‘accept’:’text/plain’});
let options=dynamic({‘Authorization’:’Basic <insert your cloud library credentials hash here>’});
evaluate http_request(uri, headers, options)
| project title = tostring(ResponseBody.[‘title’]), contributor = tostring(ResponseBody.contributor.name), nodeset = parse_xml(tostring(ResponseBody.nodeset.nodesetXml))
| mv-expand UAVariable=nodeset.UANodeSet.UAVariable
| project-away nodeset
| extend NodeId = UAVariable.[‘@NodeId’], DisplayName = tostring(UAVariable.DisplayName.[‘#text’]), BrowseName = tostring(UAVariable.[‘@BrowseName’]), DataType = tostring(UAVariable.[‘@DataType’])
| project-away UAVariable
| take 10000
You need to provide two things in the query above:
The Information Model’s unique ID from the UA Cloud Library and enter it into the <insert information model identifier from cloud library here> field of the ADX query.
Your UA Cloud Library credentials (generated during registration) basic authorization header hash and insert it into the <insert your cloud library credentials hash here> field of the ADX query. Use tools like https://www.debugbear.com/basic-auth-header-generator to generate this.
And voila! You have just imported an entire OPC UA Information Model into a temporary table in Azure Data Explorer which you can then use in your queries!

Monitor your Virtual Machines and Arc servers’ workloads with Azure Monitor
Motivation
Azure Monitor is an amazing suite of technologies that lets you collect, visualize, and act on data from your Azure resources. You can use metrics and logs to monitor the health and performance of any Azure resource. Microsoft offers tailored experiences for specific workloads, such as Virtual Machine Insights. Some of these experiences also include alerts and modern dashboards (Grafana) to help you act and troubleshoot issues. However, for server-based workloads, such as IIS, Print Servers, DNS, and others, there was no native cloud solution for monitoring. Until now.
The Azure Monitor Starter Packs (or “MonStar” packs) is a set of pre-configured components that provide monitoring configuration for multiple Azure resources without the need to create rules, alerts or dashboards. The monitoring features will be ready for assignment and consumption as soon as deployed.
Each pack will contain the required rules to collect the pertinent information (DCRs), the Alert Rules to inform about observations (alerts) and Dashboards (Grafana) to visualize the data.
Deployment
The deployment process is as simple as clicking a button in the repository:
For details on how to deploy, please refer to the documentation here. Once deployed, frontend and backend components will be leveraged to provide management experience, collect data and act (alerting) on specified thresholds.
The main workbook is the front end to the solution and will allow enabling and disabling monitoring as well as checking the status of the monitored resources.
In the backend, a Logic App in conjunction with a Function app make the actions from the workbook possible. Operations like enabling and disabling monitoring, enabling or disabling alerts can be triggered from the workbook.
Coverage
Currently, the are packs for the following technologies:
IIS 2012 and 2016
DNS 2016
Print Server 2016
Nginx
Windows OS and Linux OS (using VM Insights).
Collaboration
New packs can be built by leveraging the existing modules and creating bicep files based on a template. Details on how to build a pack can be found here.
If you find any issues, please report them in the repository.
Start using the Azure Monitor Starter Packs today!
