1.
You are a data engineer implementing a lambda architecture on Microsoft Azure. You use an open-source big data solution to collect, process, and maintain data. The analytical data store performs poorly. You must implement a solution that meets the following requirements:
Provide data warehousing
Reduce ongoing management activities
Deliver SQL query responses in less than one second
You need to create an HDInsight cluster to meet the requirements.
Which type of cluster should you create?
2.
You develop data engineering solutions for a company. The company has on-premises Microsoft SQL Server databases at multiple locations. The company must integrate data with Microsoft Power BI and Microsoft Azure Logic Apps. The solution must avoid single points of failure during connection and transfer to the cloud. The solution must also minimize latency. You need to secure the transfer of data between on-premises databases and Microsoft Azure. What should you do?
3.
You are a data architect. The data engineering team needs to configure a synchronization of data between an on-premises Microsoft SQL Server database to Azure SQL Database. Ad-hoc and reporting queries are being overutilized the on-premises production instance. The synchronization process must: Perform an initial data synchronization to Azure SQL Database with minimal downtime Perform bi-directional data synchronization after initial synchronization You need to implement this synchronization solution. Which synchronization method should you use?
4.
An application will use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB as its data solution. The application will use the Cassandra API to support a column-based database type that uses containers to store items. You need to provision Azure Cosmos DB. Which container name and item name should you use? Each correct answer presents part of the solutions. NOTE: Each correct answer selection is worth one point.
5.
A company has a SaaS solution that uses Azure SQL Database with elastic pools. The solution contains a dedicated database for each customer organization. Customer organizations have peak usage at different periods during the year. You need to implement the Azure SQL Database elastic pool to minimize cost. Which option or options should you configure?
6.
A company manages several on-premises Microsoft SQL Server databases. You need to migrate the databases to Microsoft Azure by using a backup process of Microsoft SQL Server. Which data technology should you use?
7.
The data engineering team manages Azure HDInsight clusters. The team spends a large amount of time creating and destroying clusters daily because most of the data pipeline process runs in minutes. You need to implement a solution that deploys multiple HDInsight clusters with minimal effort. What should you implement?
8.
You are the data engineer for your company. An application uses a NoSQL database to store data. The database uses the key-value and wide-column NoSQL database type. Developers need to access data in the database using an API. You need to determine which API to use for the database model and type. Which two APIs should you use? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. 885CB989129A5F974833949052CFB2F2 NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
9.
A company is designing a hybrid solution to synchronize data and on-premises Microsoft SQL Server database to Azure SQL Database. You must perform an assessment of databases to determine whether data will move without compatibility issues. You need to perform the assessment. Which tool should you use?
10.
A company plans to use Azure SQL Database to support a mission-critical application. The application must be highly available without performance degradation during maintenance windows. You need to implement the solution. Which three technologies should you implement? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
