Hi guys,
I am planning to take two Azure exams: Exam DP-200: Implementing an Azure Data Solution, Exam DP-201: Designing an Azure Data Solution.
Can you recommend any good books to prepare for these exams?

Preparing for this exam started back in February 2019, when I started studying for the DP-200 exam. There were no courses, practice exams, or books available at that time. Instead, I relied heavily on Microsoft Learn and a lot of hands-on experience.
In short, this is how I prepared:
Complete Microsoft Learning Paths for Azure Data Engineers
Read and Reference the Azure Docs
Review Azure Solution Architectures
Watch SQLBits Session Recordings
I then took the DP-200 exam. This got me about 90% of the way for this exam as well. After that, I shifted my focus to the DP-201 exam:
Understand Skills Measured in Exam DP-201
Work through the DP-201 labs on Github
Review Microsoft Customer Stories
On May 9th, 2019, the official classroom course was released. I did not take this course because I wanted to try the new learning paths from Microsoft, but you may find a more traditional course useful.
Update in January 2020: The official practice test for exam DP-201 is now available. I have had great experience with practice tests in the past and generally highly recommend them 🙂 I did not try this one, though, as it was not available until after I had passed my exam.
Always check the latest official information from Microsoft before your exam.

If you take notes of what you use, what you learned, how the test goes (don't break NDA), it would make a great article.
