I took the DataSys+ beta earlier this week. I like the updates to this exam. It seems better scoped than the current version. It took a little bit of Net+, a bit of Cloud+, a good chunk of Sec+--all in the context of databases--and then mixed in lots of database content. I had 4-5 PBQs (can't remember exactly), and a total of about 115 questions, with a better mix of difficulty than the current exam and more technical knowledge required. Finished a good hour early.

Anyone else taken this one yet? What did you think?

I just finished the DataSys+ beta exam. They added a new domain 6.0 Data Integration (13% of the exam),

You will need networking, security, BCDR, SQL, data privacy, API, Python, Bash/PowerShell, and cloud knowledge to complete the exam.

I had 116 questions, with 4 PBQs. I thought some of the questions were very easy, some were midrange, and some were challenging.
