Answer: A
Explanation:
Scenario: Allow Contoso users to use PolyBase in an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool to query the content of the data records that host the Twitter
feeds. Data must be protected by using row-level security (RLS). The users must be authenticated by using their own Azure AD credentials.
Box 1: CREATE EXTERNAL DATA SOURCE
External data sources are used to connect to storage accounts. Box 2: CREATE EXTERNAL FILE FORMAT
CREATE EXTERNAL FILE FORMAT creates an external file format object that defines external data stored in Azure Blob Storage or Azure Data Lake Storage.
Creating an external file format is a prerequisite for creating an external table.
Box 3: CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE AS SELECT
When used in conjunction with the CREATE TABLE AS SELECT statement, selecting from an external table imports data into a table within the SQL pool. In
addition to the COPY statement, external tables are useful for loading data.

You plan to create an Azure Databricks workspace that has a tiered structure. The workspace will contain the following three workloads:
A workload for data engineers who will use Python and SQL.
A workload for jobs that will run notebooks that use Python, Scala, and SOL.
A workload that data scientists will use to perform ad hoc analysis in Scala and R.
The enterprise architecture team at your company identifies the following standards for Databricks environments:
The data engineers must share a cluster.
The job cluster will be managed by using a request process whereby data scientists and data engineers provide packaged notebooks for deployment to the
cluster.
All the data scientists must be assigned their own cluster that terminates automatically after 120 minutes of inactivity. Currently, there are three data scientists.
You need to create the Databricks clusters for the workloads.
Solution: You create a High Concurrency cluster for each data scientist, a High Concurrency cluster for the data engineers, and a Standard cluster for the jobs.
Does this meet the goal?
A. Yes
B. No
Answer: B
Explanation:
Need a High Concurrency cluster for the jobs.
Standard clusters are recommended for a single user. Standard can run workloads developed in any language: Python, R, Scala, and SQL.
A high concurrency cluster is a managed cloud resource. The key benefits of high concurrency clusters are that they provide Apache Spark-native fine-grained
sharing for maximum resource utilization and minimum query latencies.

A. Mastered
B. Not Mastered
Answer: A
Explanation:
Step 1: Create an Azure Storage account that has a lifecycle policy
To automate common data management tasks, Microsoft created a solution based on Azure Data Factory. The service, Data Lifecycle Management, makes
frequently accessed data available and archives or purges other data according to retention policies. Teams across the company use the service to reduce storage
costs, improve app performance, and comply with data retention policies.
Step 2: Create a Log Analytics workspace that has Data Retention set to 120 days.
Data Factory stores pipeline-run data for only 45 days. Use Azure Monitor if you want to keep that data for a longer time. With Monitor, you can route diagnostic
logs for analysis to multiple different targets, such as a Storage Account: Save your diagnostic logs to a storage account for auditing or manual inspection. You can
use the diagnostic settings to specify the retention time in days.
Step 3: From Azure Portal, add a diagnostic setting. Step 4: Send the data to a log Analytics workspace,
Event Hub: A pipeline that transfers events from services to Azure Data Explorer. Keeping Azure Data Factory metrics and pipeline-run data.

Answer: A
Explanation:
Answer: C
Answer: D
A. as a temporal table
B. as a SQL graph table
C. as a degenerate dimension table
D. as a Type 2 slowly changing dimension (SCD) table
Answer: D
Explanation:
A Type 2 SCD supports versioning of dimension members. Often the source system doesn't store versions, so the data warehouse load process detects and
manages changes in a dimension table. In this case, the dimension table must use a surrogate key to provide a unique reference to a version of the dimension
member. It also includes columns that define the date range validity of the version (for example, StartDate and EndDate) and possibly a flag column (for example,
IsCurrent) to easily filter by current dimension members.

A. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect:
Error[com.microsoft.polybase.client.KerberosSecureLogin] occurred while accessing external files.'
B. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect: Error [No FileSystem for scheme: wasbs]

C. Cannot execute the query "Remote Query" against OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11": for linked server "(null)", Query aborted- the maximum reject threshold
(orows) was reached while regarding from an external source: 1 rows rejected out of total 1 rows processed.
D. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect: Error [Unable to instantiate LoginClass]
occurredwhile accessing external files.'
Answer: C
Explanation:
Customer Scenario:
SQL Server 2016 or SQL DW connected to Azure blob storage. The CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE DDL points to a directory (and not a specific file) and the
directory contains files with different schemas.
SSMS Error:
Select query on the external table gives the following error: Msg 7320, Level 16, State 110, Line 14
Cannot execute the query "Remote Query" against OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "(null)". Query aborted-- the maximum reject threshold (0
rows) was reached while reading from an external source: 1 rows rejected out of total 1 rows processed.
Possible Reason:
The reason this error happens is because each file has different schema. The PolyBase external table DDL when pointed to a directory recursively reads all the
files in that directory. When a column or data type mismatch happens, this error could be seen in SSMS.
Possible Solution:
If the data for each table consists of one file, then use the filename in the LOCATION section prepended by the directory of the external files. If there are multiple
files per table, put each set of files into different directories in Azure Blob Storage and then you can point LOCATION to the directory instead of a particular
file. The latter suggestion is the best practices recommended by SQLCAT even if you have one file per table.
A. Yes
B. No
Answer: B
Explanation:
Instead use a tumbling window. Tumbling windows are a series of fixed-sized, non-overlapping and contiguous
time intervals. Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream-analytics-query/tumbling-window-azure-stream-analytics
One minute later, you execute the following query from a serverless SQL pool in MyWorkspace. SELECT EmployeeID
FROM mytestdb.dbo.myParquetTable WHERE name = 'Alice';
What will be returned by the query?
A. 24
B. an error
C. a null value
Answer: A
Explanation:
Once a database has been created by a Spark job, you can create tables in it with Spark that use Parquet as the storage format. Table names will be converted to
lower case and need to be queried using the lower case name. These tables will immediately become available for querying by any of the Azure Synapse
workspace Spark pools. They can also be used from any of the Spark jobs subject to permissions.
Note: For external tables, since they are synchronized to serverless SQL pool asynchronously, there will be a delay until they appear.

A. Type 0
B. Type 1
C. Type 2
D. Type 3
Answer: C
Explanation:
Type 2 - Creating a new additional record. In this methodology all history of dimension changes is kept in the database. You capture attribute change by adding a
new row with a new surrogate key to the dimension table. Both the prior and new rows contain as attributes the natural key(or other durable identifier). Also
'effective date' and 'current indicator' columns are used in this method. There could be only one record with current indicator set to 'Y'. For 'effective date' columns,
i.e. start_date and end_date, the end_date for current record usually is set to value 9999-12-31. Introducing changes to the dimensional model in type 2 could be
very expensive database operation so it is not recommended to use it in dimensions where a new attribute could be added in the future.

Answer: C
Explanation:
Tumbling window functions are used to segment a data stream into distinct time segments and perform a function against them, such as the example below. The
key differentiators of a Tumbling window are that they repeat, do not overlap, and an event cannot belong to more than one tumbling window.

After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You plan to create an Azure Databricks workspace that has a tiered structure. The workspace will contain the following three workloads:
A workload for data engineers who will use Python and SQL.
A workload for jobs that will run notebooks that use Python, Scala, and SOL.
A workload that data scientists will use to perform ad hoc analysis in Scala and R.
The enterprise architecture team at your company identifies the following standards for Databricks environments:
The data engineers must share a cluster.
The job cluster will be managed by using a request process whereby data scientists and data engineers provide packaged notebooks for deployment to the
cluster.
All the data scientists must be assigned their own cluster that terminates automatically after 120 minutes of inactivity. Currently, there are three data scientists.
You need to create the Databricks clusters for the workloads.
Solution: You create a High Concurrency cluster for each data scientist, a High Concurrency cluster for the data engineers, and a Standard cluster for the jobs.
Does this meet the goal?
A. Yes
B. No
Answer: B
Explanation:
Need a High Concurrency cluster for the jobs.
Standard clusters are recommended for a single user. Standard can run workloads developed in any language: Python, R, Scala, and SQL.
A high concurrency cluster is a managed cloud resource. The key benefits of high concurrency clusters are that they provide Apache Spark-native fine-grained
sharing for maximum resource utilization and minimum query latencies.

Answer: C
Explanation:
Cluster-scoped Init Scripts: Init scripts are shell scripts that run during the startup of each cluster node before the Spark driver or worker JVM starts. Databricks
customers use init scripts for various purposes such as installing custom libraries, launching background processes, or applying enterprise security policies.
Logs for Cluster-scoped init scripts are now more consistent with Cluster Log Delivery and can be found in the same root folder as driver and executor logs for the
cluster.

Answer: A
Explanation:
Answer: C
Answer: D
A. as a temporal table
B. as a SQL graph table
C. as a degenerate dimension table
D. as a Type 2 slowly changing dimension (SCD) table
Answer: D
Explanation:
A Type 2 SCD supports versioning of dimension members. Often the source system doesn't store versions, so the data warehouse load process detects and
manages changes in a dimension table. In this case, the dimension table must use a surrogate key to provide a unique reference to a version of the dimension
member. It also includes columns that define the date range validity of the version (for example, StartDate and EndDate) and possibly a flag column (for example,
IsCurrent) to easily filter by current dimension members.

A. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect:
Error[com.microsoft.polybase.client.KerberosSecureLogin] occurred while accessing external files.'
B. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect: Error [No FileSystem for scheme: wasbs]
occurred while accessing external file.'
C. Cannot execute the query "Remote Query" against OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11": for linked server "(null)", Query aborted- the maximum reject threshold
(orows) was reached while regarding from an external source: 1 rows rejected out of total 1 rows processed.
D. EXTERNAL TABLE access failed due to internal error: 'Java exception raised on call to HdfsBridge_Connect: Error [Unable to instantiate LoginClass]
occurredwhile accessing external files.'
Answer: C
Explanation:
Customer Scenario:
SQL Server 2016 or SQL DW connected to Azure blob storage. The CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE DDL points to a directory (and not a specific file) and the
directory contains files with different schemas.
SSMS Error:
Select query on the external table gives the following error: Msg 7320, Level 16, State 110, Line 14
Cannot execute the query "Remote Query" against OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "(null)". Query aborted-- the maximum reject threshold (0
rows) was reached while reading from an external source: 1 rows rejected out of total 1 rows processed.
Possible Reason:
The reason this error happens is because each file has different schema. The PolyBase external table DDL when pointed to a directory recursively reads all the
files in that directory. When a column or data type mismatch happens, this error could be seen in SSMS.
Possible Solution:
If the data for each table consists of one file, then use the filename in the LOCATION section prepended by the directory of the external files. If there are multiple
files per table, put each set of files into different directories in Azure Blob Storage and then you can point LOCATION to the directory instead of a particular
file. The latter suggestion is the best practices recommended by SQLCAT even if you have one file per table.
A. Yes
B. No
Answer: B
Explanation:

One minute later, you execute the following query from a serverless SQL pool in MyWorkspace. SELECT EmployeeID
FROM mytestdb.dbo.myParquetTable WHERE name = 'Alice';
What will be returned by the query?
A. 24
B. an error
C. a null value
Answer: A
Explanation:
Once a database has been created by a Spark job, you can create tables in it with Spark that use Parquet as the storage format. Table names will be converted to
lower case and need to be queried using the lower case name. These tables will immediately become available for querying by any of the Azure Synapse
workspace Spark pools. They can also be used from any of the Spark jobs subject to permissions.
Note: For external tables, since they are synchronized to serverless SQL pool asynchronously, there will be a delay until they appear.

A. Type 0
B. Type 1
C. Type 2
D. Type 3
Answer: C
Explanation:
Type 2 - Creating a new additional record. In this methodology all history of dimension changes is kept in the database. You capture attribute change by adding a
new row with a new surrogate key to the dimension table. Both the prior and new rows contain as attributes the natural key(or other durable identifier). Also
'effective date' and 'current indicator' columns are used in this method. There could be only one record with current indicator set to 'Y'. For 'effective date' columns,
i.e. start_date and end_date, the end_date for current record usually is set to value 9999-12-31. Introducing changes to the dimensional model in type 2 could be
very expensive database operation so it is not recommended to use it in dimensions where a new attribute could be added in the future.

Answer: C
Explanation:
Tumbling window functions are used to segment a data stream into distinct time segments and perform a function against them, such as the example below. The
key differentiators of a Tumbling window are that they repeat, do not overlap, and an event cannot belong to more than one tumbling window.
