    Is this true? https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/sql-training.aspx

    I found this on net and I am curious. Is this way to go? As I see it Data Warehouse is very important and I don't see how it can be optional for this kind of certificate. If someone pass it with 461, 462 and 483 (Programming in C#) it doesn't going to have sufficient knowledge about general features of SQL Server. Is this recommended?

    It isnt on main page about MCSA for SQL Server, so?

    Personally I'm glad to see that change. Not everyone works with data warehouses. 463 is specifically SSIS, MDS and DQS, while I causally use SSIS from time to time, I'm not an SSIS developer and I've never seen MDS or DQS used in a production system.

    The change to the MCSA to add electives in place of the 70-463 exam was made in September 2014 and a search of this forum will get you to the confirming post:
