QUESTION 3

You have an Azure subscription linked to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant that contains a service principal named ServicePrincipal1. The subscription contains an Azure Data Lake Storage account named adls1. Adls1 contains a folder named Folder2 that has a URI of https://adls1.dfs.core.windows.net/container1/Folder1/Folder2/.
ServicePrincipal1 has the access control list (ACL) permissions shown in the following table.

You need to ensure that ServicePrincipal1 can perform the following actions:
1. Traverse child items that are created in Folder2.
2. Read files that are created in Folder2.

The solution must use the principle of least privilege. Which two permissions should you grant to ServicePrincipal1 for Folder2? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Access – Read
B. Access – Write
C. Access – Execute
D. Default-Read
E. Default – Write
F. Default – Execute

Correct Answer: DF

Execute (X) permission is required to traverse the child items of a folder. There are two kinds of access control lists (ACLs), Access ACLs and Default ACLs. Access ACLs: These control access to an object. Files and folders both have Access ACLs.

Default ACLs: A “template” of ACLs associated with a folder that determine the Access ACLs for any child items that are created under that folder. Files do not have Default ACLs.

QUESTION 11

DRAG DROP
You need to build a solution to ensure that users can query specific files in an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account from an Azure Synapse Analytics serverless SQL pool. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.

Select and Place:

Step 1: Create an external data source
You can create external tables in Synapse SQL pools via the following steps:
CREATE EXTERNAL DATA SOURCE to reference external Azure storage and specify the credential that should be used to access the storage. CREATE EXTERNAL FILE FORMAT to describe the format of CSV or Parquet files. CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE on top of the files placed on the data source with the same file format.

Step 2: Create an external file format object
Creating an external file format is a prerequisite for creating an external table.

Step 3: Create an external table

QUESTION 12

You have an Azure Stream Analytics query. The query returns a result set that contains 10,000 distinct values for a column named cluster. You monitor the Stream Analytics job and discover high latency. You need to reduce the latency.

Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Add a pass-through query.
B. Add a temporal analytic function.
C. Scale out the query by using PARTITION BY.
D. Convert the query to a reference query.
E. Increase the number of streaming units.

Correct Answer: CE

C: Scaling a Stream Analytics job takes advantage of partitions in the input or output.
Partitioning lets you divide data into subsets based on a partition key. A process that consumes the data (such as a Streaming Analytics job) can consume and write different partitions in parallel, which increases throughput.

E: Streaming Units (SUs) represent the computing resources that are allocated to execute a Stream Analytics job. The higher the number of SUs, the more CPU and memory resources are allocated for your job. This capacity lets you focus on the query logic and abstracts the need to manage the hardware to run your Stream Analytics job in a timely manner.
