NEW QUESTION 60
You have an Azure SQL database that contains a table named factSales. FactSales contains the columns shown in the following table.
FactSales has 6 billion rows and is loaded nightly by using a batch process.
Which type of compression provides the greatest space reduction for the database?
- A. row compression
- B. columnstore compression
- C. page compression
- D. columnstore archival compression
Answer: D
Explanation:
Section: [none]
Explanation:
Columnstore tables and indexes are always stored with columnstore compression. You can further reduce the size of columnstore data by configuring an additional compression called archival compression.
Note: Columnstore - The columnstore index is also logically organized as a table with rows and columns, but the data is physically stored in a column-wise data format.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Rowstore - The rowstore index is the traditional style that has been around since the initial release of SQL Server.
For rowstore tables and indexes, use the data compression feature to help reduce the size of the database.

NEW QUESTION 63
You have an Azure SQL database.
You discover that the plan cache is full of compiled plans that were used only once.
You run the select * from sys.database_scoped_configurationsTransact-SQL command and receive the results shown in the following table.
You need relieve the memory pressure.
What should you configure?
- A. QUERY_OPTIMIZER_HOTFIXES
- B. LEGACY_CARDINALITY_ESTIMATION
- C. ACCELERATED_PLAN_FORCING
- D. OPTIMIZE_FOR_AD_HOC_WORKLOADS
Answer: D
Explanation:
OPTIMIZE_FOR_AD_HOC_WORKLOADS = { ON | OFF }
Enables or disables a compiled plan stub to be stored in cache when a batch is compiled for the first time. The default is OFF. Once the database scoped configuration OPTIMIZE_FOR_AD_HOC_WORKLOADS is enabled for a database, a compiled plan stub will be stored in cache when a batch is compiled for the first time.
Plan stubs have a smaller memory footprint compared to the size of the full compiled plan.
Incorrect Answers:
A: LEGACY_CARDINALITY_ESTIMATION = { ON | OFF | PRIMARY }
Enables you to set the query optimizer cardinality estimation model to the SQL Server 2012 and earlier version independent of the compatibility level of the database. The default is OFF, which sets the query optimizer cardinality estimation model based on the compatibility level of the database.
B: QUERY_OPTIMIZER_HOTFIXES = { ON | OFF | PRIMARY }
Enables or disables query optimization hotfixes regardless of the compatibility level of the database. The default is OFF, which disables query optimization hotfixes that were released after the highest available compatibility level was introduced for a specific version (post-RTM).

NEW QUESTION 67
You are designing a date dimension table in an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool. The date dimension table will be used by all the fact tables.
Which distribution type should you recommend to minimize data movement?
- A. ROUND_ROBIN
- B. HASH
- C. REPLICATE
Answer: C
Explanation:
A replicated table has a full copy of the table available on every Compute node. Queries run fast on replicated tables since joins on replicated tables don't require data movement. Replication requires extra storage, though, and isn't practical for large tables.
Incorrect Answers:
C: A round-robin distributed table distributes table rows evenly across all distributions. The assignment of rows to distributions is random. Unlike hash-distributed tables, rows with equal values are not guaranteed to be assigned to the same distribution.
As a result, the system sometimes needs to invoke a data movement operation to better organize your data before it can resolve a query.

You receive numerous alerts from Azure Monitor for an Azure SQL database.
You need to reduce the number of alerts. You must only receive alerts if there is a significant change in usage patterns for an extended period.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. Set Threshold Sensitivity to Low
- B. Set the Alert logic threshold to Dynamic
- C. Set Force Plan to On
- D. Set Threshold Sensitivity to High
- E. Set the Alert logic threshold to Static
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Section: [none]
Explanation:
B: Dynamic Thresholds continuously learns the data of the metric series and tries to model it using a set of algorithms and methods. It detects patterns in the data such as seasonality (Hourly / Daily / Weekly), and is able to handle noisy metrics (such as machine CPU or memory) as well as metrics with low dispersion (such as availability and error rate).
D: Alert threshold sensitivity is a high-level concept that controls the amount of deviation from metric behavior required to trigger an alert.
Low - The thresholds will be loose with more distance from metric series pattern. An alert rule will only trigger on large deviations, resulting in fewer alerts.
Incorrect Answers:
A: High - The thresholds will be tight and close to the metric series pattern. An alert rule will be triggered on the smallest deviation, resulting in more alerts.

You scale up the virtual machine to 8 vCPUSs and 64 GB of memory.
You need to provide the lowest latency for tempdb.
What is the total number of data files that tempdb should contain?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: C
Explanation:
The number of files depends on the number of (logical) processors on the machine. As a general rule, if the number of logical processors is less than or equal to eight, use the same number of data files as logical processors. If the number of logical processors is greater than eight, use eight data files and then if contention continues, increase the number of data files by multiples of 4 until the contention is reduced to acceptable levels or make changes to the workload/code.

You have an Azure SQL database named sqldb1.
You need to minimize the possibility of Query Store transitioning to a read-only state.
What should you do?
- A. Double the value of Data Flush interval
- B. Decrease by half the value of Statistics Collection interval
- C. Decrease by half the value of Data Flush Interval
- D. Double the value of Statistics Collection Interval
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
Explanation:
The Max Size (MB) limit isn't strictly enforced. Storage size is checked only when Query Store writes data to disk. This interval is set by the Data Flush Interval (Minutes) option. If Query Store has breached the maximum size limit between storage size checks, it transitions to read-only mode.
Incorrect Answers:
C: Statistics Collection Interval: Defines the level of granularity for the collected runtime statistic, expressed in minutes. The default is 60 minutes. Consider using a lower value if you require finer granularity or less time to detect and mitigate issues. Keep in mind that the value directly affects the size of Query Store data.
