Partitioning data is key to ensuring efficient processing. In this course, you'll explore what data partitioning is and the strategies for implementation. You'll learn about transactional and analytical workloads and how to determine the best strategy for your files and table storage. Then, you'll examine design patterns for efficiency and performance. You'll learn about partitioning dedicated SQL pools in Azure Synapse Analytics and partitioning data lakes. Finally, you'll learn how data sharding across multiple data stores can be used for improving transaction performance. This course is one in a collection that prepares learners for the Microsoft Data Engineering on Microsoft Azure (DP-203) exam.
