DP-203 Practice Questions — Page 2

You have an enterprise-wide Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account. The data lake is accessible only through an Azure virtual network named VNET1.

You are building a SQL pool in Azure Synapse that will use data from the data lake.

Your company has a sales team. All the members of the sales team are in an Azure Active Directory group named Sales. POSIX controls are used to assign the

Hot Area:

You have an enterprise data warehouse in Azure Synapse Analytics.

Using PolyBase, you create an external table named [Ext].[Items] to query Parquet files stored in Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 without importing the data to the data warehouse.

The external table has three columns.

You discover that the Parquet files have a fourth column named ItemID.

Which command should you run to add the ItemID column to the external table?

A.

B.

C.

D.

You have two Azure Storage accounts named Storage1 and Storage2. Each account holds one container and has the hierarchical namespace enabled. The system has files that contain data stored in the Apache Parquet format.

You need to copy folders and files from Storage1 to Storage2 by using a Data Factory copy activity. The solution must meet the following requirements:

✑ No transformations must be performed.

✑ The original folder structure must be retained.

✑ Minimize time required to perform the copy activity.

How should you configure the copy activity? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

Hot Area:

You have a SQL pool in Azure Synapse.

You plan to load data from Azure Blob storage to a staging table. Approximately 1 million rows of data will be loaded daily. The table will be truncated before each daily load.

You need to create the staging table. The solution must minimize how long it takes to load the data to the staging table.

How should you configure the table? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

You are designing a fact table named FactPurchase in an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool. The table contains purchases from suppliers for a retail store. FactPurchase will contain the following columns.

FactPurchase will have 1 million rows of data added daily and will contain three years of data.

Transact-SQL queries similar to the following query will be executed daily.

SELECT

SupplierKey, StockItemKey, IsOrderFinalized, COUNT(*)

FROM FactPurchase

WHERE DateKey >= 20210101

AND DateKey <= 20210131

GROUP By SupplierKey, StockItemKey, IsOrderFinalized

Which table distribution will minimize query times?

From a website analytics system, you receive data extracts about user interactions such as downloads, link clicks, form submissions, and video plays.

The data contains the following columns.

You need to design a star schema to support analytical queries of the data. The star schema will contain four tables including a date dimension.

To which table should you add each column? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
