The SQL AI Developer Certification is the newest and most relevant certification for SQL developers right now, because AI is no longer optional in modern data work.

In this series, we break down everything you need to know to confidently take the DP-800 exam. We’ll get into building real SQL solutions that actually reflect how people are working today, and cover what it takes to run those solutions in production, including performance, security, and deployment.

And of course, we’ll dive into the AI side, including embeddings, vectors, intelligent search, and RAG, and how those concepts show up in SQL workloads and on the exam.

If you’ve been thinking about getting certified or want to understand how SQL and AI are coming together, this will help you get there with confidence.

Build with SQL + AI: From Prompt to Intelligent Apps

8:00 PM - 9:00 PM (UTC)

AI is changing how we interact with data, and you don’t need a complex setup to start building something powerful. In this session, we’ll kick off a new SQL + AI community contest and show you exactly what it takes to participate and succeed. You’ll learn how modern AI patterns—from prompting and natural language interactions to embeddings, vector search, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)—connect back to SQL and real data. We’ll focus on the practical side of building: how to take an idea, shape it with the right prompts, and turn it into something useful, whether that’s a simple interaction or a fully working intelligent app. Along the way, we’ll explore example scenarios, common patterns, and ways to think about solving real problems with SQL + AI. This session is designed to get you ready. By the end, you’ll understand what the contest expects, how to approach it, and how to apply these concepts beyond the contest—in your own projects and real-world work!
