APMG International Enterprise Big Data Professional Sample Questions

The Enterprise Big Data Framework treats big data as an organisational capability, not a piece of software: lasting value comes only when strategy, architecture, algorithms, processes, people and artificial intelligence are built up together, in that order. The APMG International EBDP exam checks that you can explain each of those six parts and how they connect. It has 60 multiple-choice questions, 90 minutes and a 65% pass mark.

That single idea shapes how to prepare. A candidate who memorises the Hadoop vocabulary but cannot say why a company should write a strategy before it buys storage is studying the wrong way round. This guide walks through the framework in the order the framework itself recommends, shows what each part asks of you, and ends with a four-week plan and a short note on what the certificate does and does not prove. It was checked against APMG's product page and the free EBDP handbook in October 2026.

What does the EBDP paper look like, and who awards the certificate?

Yes. APMG International's Enterprise Big Data certification page is live, carries no retirement notice and links to a booking route for the exam. The qualification was developed jointly with the Enterprise Big Data Framework Alliance, an independent body of knowledge, and APMG administers the examination. The full title is the APMG International DASCIN Certified Enterprise Big Data Professional, because the framework now sits under DASCIN.
