Most Data Platform Labs Offline @ All Lab Hosters

Edited 2/14/25 to include all lab hosters. 

Hello partners, 

Many Data Platform labs have been taken offline at all lab hosters for newly discovered required fixes. The following labs are not currently available: 

  • DP-203
  • DP-3011
  • DP-3012
  • DP-3014
  • DP-600
  • DP-601
  • DP-602
  • DP-603
  • DP-604

DP-900 remains online, but Lab #3 is currently impacted by this outage. DP-3020 is not impacted. 

Lab hosters are reaching out to instructors who are scheduled to deliver the impacted course. We don't currently have an ETA but will update here as we know more.

    DanDonohueWould it be possible to get some clarity on the reason(s) for taking so many labs down? There is significant confusion around this topic within the learning community, especially because some ALHs still have the labs up. Thanks.

    Is DP-600 coming back soon? Some ALHs still have it up, some took it down.

      I heard the same. Apparently there's a bit of a 50/50 going on with whether the lab accounts actually work or not which is obviously not ideal.

      I think after nearly 4 weeks it's high time for an ETA update. Even if that is 'no idea yet'. Not being able to teach these courses is not good for MS Fabric, MCTs and lab hosters.
