Datadog Datadog Fundamentals Exam Prep
Datadog Fundamentals (Page 3 )

• Matching hashes: The software is unchanged.
• Different hashes: The software was modified or corrupted.

• Encryption: Protects confidentiality.
• Baselines: Define approved configurations or normal performance.
• Tokenization: Replaces sensitive data with tokens.

• Who performed the action
• What action occurred
• When it occurred
• Where it originated
• Whether it succeeded or failed

• Investigating suspicious activity: Important, but investigation depends on having adequate audit data first.
• Storage allocation: Necessary for retention, but storage does not help if the records lack meaningful details.
• Actions after audit failure: Part of operational planning, not the primary assessment of the application’s audit capability.

• A — Correct: Flow Builder is declarative and visual, so administrators and other non-developers can participate in designing and improving business processes without writing Apex.
• D — Correct: Flow Builder provides visual debugging tools, allowing an admin to test paths, inspect variable values, and identify where a specific business case fails.
• E — Correct: A flow’s visual structure documents the logic and makes later maintenance easier than reading and updating custom Apex code.

• B — Incorrect: Flow debugging does not attach a debugger to live customer sessions. The admin uses Flow Builder’s debug functionality with test inputs; this is not live-session debugging and should not be used to monitor real customer transactions.

1. Start with the 48-bit MAC address.
2. Split it into two 24-bit halves.
3. Insert FF:FE between the halves, creating a 64-bit value.
4. Invert the U/L bit—the seventh bit from the left in the first MAC byte.

text 
MAC:       00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E 
EUI-64:    02:1A:2B:FF:FE:3C:4D:5E

• FE80 is the prefix commonly used for an IPv6 link-local address, not part of the EUI-64 interface ID.
• The interface ID is not random.
• The MAC address is modified by inserting FF:FE and changing the U/L bit.

• Field name and label
• Data type
• Reference table
• Default value
• Whether the field is mandatory or read-only
• Field attributes and configuration

• A: Labels and translations are handled through documentation and translation-related records.
• C: Table relationships may be represented through reference fields, but this is not the primary description of the Dictionary.
• D: Spell-checking language data is unrelated to the System Dictionary.

Question 3: AWS Storage Gateway File Gateway

• A: S3 bucket per user — S3 is object storage, not a traditional shared file system; mounting it requires extra tools and is less efficient.
• B: File Gateway — Provides a local file share using standard file protocols while storing files in Amazon S3. This preserves convenient local access and extends storage capacity.
• C: WorkSpaces and WorkDocs — Designed for virtual desktops and document collaboration, not large shared file storage.
• D: EC2 with EBS — EBS is attached to one EC2 instance and is not designed for direct multi-user file sharing.

• Primary and core nodes: Use On-Demand Instances because the workload is business-critical. These nodes manage the cluster and store/process HDFS data.
• Task nodes: Use Spot Instances in an instance fleet. Task nodes are suitable for interruption because they do not hold essential cluster data and can be replaced or diversified across instance types.
• Terminate the entire cluster after processing: The job runs only about six hours each morning, and EMRFS stores data in Amazon S3. Keeping the cluster running for the rest of the day would waste money.

• A: Using Spot for primary and core nodes risks interruption of the critical cluster.
• C: All On-Demand is reliable but unnecessarily expensive; terminating the cluster helps, but Spot task nodes provide greater savings.
• D: Leaving primary and core nodes running after the task finishes continues to incur costs. Savings Plans also are less appropriate for this intermittent workload.

• A recipient who already has a Microsoft account or an organizational account can authenticate by signing in.
• A recipient without a usable Microsoft identity may receive a one-time passcode by email.
• The passcode is sent to the same email address that was invited and is used to verify ownership of that address.

• R-squared: Typically used for regression, not classification.
• RMSE: Measures prediction error for continuous numerical values, so it is not the best fit here.
• Learning rate: A training hyperparameter that controls how quickly the model updates its weights; it is not an evaluation metric.

• Increase/decrease the number of epochs: Changes how long training runs, but does not reuse a pre-trained model.
• Unsupervised learning: Trains from unlabeled data and does not specifically address adapting an existing model.

• Replace the keyboard: More expensive and unnecessary before simpler causes are ruled out.
• Replace the key switch: Laptop keyboards generally aren’t designed for individual switch replacement.
• Replace the circuit board: Excessive for a single nonworking key and not a cost-effective first step.

• Customize Opportunity Contact Role

• Add the Opportunity Contact Role related list to the Opportunity page layout

• Campaign Member Role relates contacts or leads to campaigns, not opportunities.
• Campaign Member related list would expose campaign participation, not the stakeholders for the opportunity.
• Customize Campaign Role also concerns campaigns.

• Uses on-premises data or resources
• Runs components in the cloud
• Can scale across multiple cloud environments when demand increases

• Public cloud: Resources are hosted entirely by a cloud provider.
• Private cloud: Resources are dedicated to one organization, usually in its own environment.
• Hybrid: Combines on-premises and cloud resources.

• The user starts in the corporate portal.
• The portal launches the Salesforce resource.
• The IdP sends the SAML response to Salesforce.

• Connected App + OAuth is for OAuth authorization and API/app access, not this SAML-based seamless login scenario.
• SP-initiated SSO would begin when the user first requests the Salesforce resource and Salesforce redirects them to the IdP. That is not the described starting point.

1. Get Data > Folder

1. Expand the Attributes column

1. Remove the Content column

• Folder connector: lists files and their metadata, but also includes a Content binary column.
• Combine Files: processes and combines the actual CSV contents, which is explicitly disallowed here.

• Due Date
• Order Date
• Delivery Date

DAX 
Order Date = 'Due Date' 
Delivery Date = 'Due Date'

• Due Date[Date] ? Sales[Due Date]
• Order Date[Date] ? Sales[Order Date]
• Delivery Date[Date] ? Sales[Delivery Date]

• Drops packets when traffic exceeds a certain bitrate: This describes traffic policing, not shaping.
• Fragments large packets and queues them: Shaping does not fragment packets as its primary congestion-control action.
• Drops packets randomly from lower-priority queues: Packet dropping may occur if a shaping queue becomes full, but it is not the defining behavior.

• Shaping: buffers and delays excess traffic.
• Policing: drops or marks traffic that exceeds the configured rate.

• Elicited and documented customer requirements
• Converted them into clear, measurable specifications
• Validated the requirements with the customer
• Used them as the basis for design, quality checks, and acceptance

• A: Requirements should reflect the customer’s needs—not the supplier’s standards.
• B: Iteration review planning does not replace proper requirements collection.
• D: A retrospective occurs after work is completed and is mainly for process improvement, not initial requirements definition.

• Modelo de embeddings multimodal: transforma texto e imagens em vetores no mesmo espaço semântico. Isso permite comparar uma consulta textual com imagens, ou uma imagem com textos relacionados.
• Modelo generativo multimodal: interpreta diferentes modalidades e gera conteúdo, mas não é a escolha específica para indexação e busca vetorial.
• Modelo de geração de imagens: cria imagens, portanto é inadequado.
• Modelo de embeddings de texto: não atende consultas com imagens.

• Issuer: Identifies the party issuing a SAML message—usually the identity provider in the assertion. It is not the Salesforce-specific identifier the architect should provide for differentiating Salesforce.
• Identity Provider Login URL: The endpoint where users are sent to authenticate.
• SAML identity location: Determines where the user identity is found in the SAML assertion, such as the subject or an attribute.

• Geo-redundant storage (GRS) replicates data to a secondary Azure region, but the secondary copy is normally unavailable for read access.
• RA-GRS provides geo-replication and read-only access to the secondary region, satisfying all requirements.
• Zone-redundant storage (ZRS) replicates data across availability zones within the same Azure region, not separate geographic regions.
• Locally redundant storage (LRS) keeps copies within a single datacenter or region and does not provide geographic resiliency.

• The user authenticates with the external Identity Provider.
• Salesforce receives the SAML assertion.
• Salesforce uses attributes in that assertion—such as username, email, first name, last name, and profile/community information—to create the user during the first login.
• On later logins, Salesforce updates or uses the existing user record.

• On-the-fly provisioning is a general phrase; the Salesforce capability being tested is specifically JIT provisioning.
• Salesforce APIs would require a separate integration and provisioning process.
• Identity Connect is designed primarily to synchronize users from an identity directory, not to create users at the moment of their first SAML login.

• Regional leads — Customer Community Plus

• Capacity planners — External Identity

• Customer Community does not provide the enhanced reporting/dashboard access required by regional leads.
• An Identity license is generally for internal Salesforce identity use and does not fit the external capacity-planning users as well as External Identity.

• VM CPU, memory, disk, and network usage
• Storage transactions and latency
• App Service response time
• Database DTU or CPU utilization

• Azure Traffic Analytics analyzes network traffic flows and security patterns; it is not the general infrastructure metrics tool.
• Azure Activity Log records subscription-level control-plane operations, such as resource creation, deletion, or configuration changes.
• Azure Advisor provides recommendations about cost, security, reliability, performance, and operational excellence, but it is not the primary tool for investigating live metrics.

• A — conformant: Incorrect because one explicit requirement is violated.
• B — consistent: “Consistent” is not sufficient where the implementation contradicts a mandatory specification. The RPC mechanism is covered by the architecture, and the implementation differs from it.
• C — consistent: Incorrect reasoning: the RPC mechanism does have a defined architectural requirement, so conformance must be assessed.
• D — non-conformant: Correct because the implementation fails to follow the specified RPC/threading requirement.

• prompt: the input or instruction given to the model
• completion: the desired response

json 
{"prompt":"Summarize this customer complaint.","completion":"The customer reports a delayed shipment."}

• B: A .txt file containing CSV-style lines is not automatically a valid fine-tuning dataset. The required structure and format must match the selected Bedrock model.
• C: Provisioned Throughput provides dedicated inference capacity; it does not fine-tune a model.
• D: Journals and textbooks might support domain adaptation or pretraining, but they do not provide the prompt-to-answer examples typically required for supervised fine-tuning.

• A: Daily involvement is unnecessary and may not solve the availability problem.
• C: Clarifying all requirements at the start conflicts with agile’s iterative refinement.
• D: Simply reviewing based on availability leaves the problem unresolved and allows rework to continue.

• Import — Loads data into Power BI. It requires a refresh, so it may not reflect changes within two minutes unless refresh is configured appropriately.
• Live connection — Connects to an existing Power BI semantic model or Analysis Services model; it is not the normal choice for connecting directly to an Azure SQL database.

• Which Security policy matches
• Which NAT rule/translation is selected
• Which PBF rule applies
• Which route is used

text 
test security-policy-match ... 
test nat-policy-match ... 
test pbf-policy-match ... 
test routing fib-lookup ...

• Numerical flexibility: Adjusting the number of employees, such as using temporary, part-time or contract staff.
• Temporal flexibility: Varying when employees work, such as through flexitime, overtime or different working hours.
• Shift system flexibility: Changing work patterns or shift arrangements; it is not specifically about moving between tasks.

• 25 — Traditional SMTP server-to-server mail transfer; not normally used for secure client submission.
• 110 — POP3, used to retrieve email and typically unencrypted.
• 143 — IMAP, used to access email and typically unencrypted.

• SharePoint search: Finds documents based on search terms, but it does not reliably identify every 32-character account number for DLP enforcement.
• A hunting query in Microsoft 365 Defender: Used for security investigations, not for defining sensitive content in a DLP policy.
• Azure Information Protection: Uses classification and labeling; it does not automatically identify this specific account-number pattern unless configured with a matching sensitive information type.
• RegEx pattern matching: Best suited for structured identifiers with a known format, such as account numbers, employee IDs, or policy numbers.

• Users retain their existing usernames and passwords.
• Existing accounts can be used to access Azure-based resources.
• Administrators avoid manually recreating thousands of accounts.
• The transition is less disruptive before the on-premises data center is retired.

• A. IDS attack signatures: An IDS primarily detects suspicious network activity and usually does not provide dedicated file-upload malware scanning. It is generally detective rather than preventive.
• C. Load balancer: Distributes traffic among servers and improves availability; it does not inspect documents for malware.
• D. WAF: Helps block web-application attacks such as SQL injection, command injection, and XSS. Although a WAF may inspect upload requests, malware detection in PDF files is more directly addressed by antivirus or content-scanning functionality.

• Looking up accounts, contacts, and opportunities
• Logging calls and updating Salesforce records
• Accessing previously available customer information when temporarily offline

• Salesforce Touch App: Primarily an older tablet-focused experience, not the best general solution for the sales team.
• Custom hybrid app: Unnecessary development when Salesforce provides the required capabilities natively.
• SalesforceA: Intended mainly for Salesforce administrators, not sales representatives.

1. Ensure BOMs can include subcomponents ? Configure an entity relationship

1. Report changes made by engineers ? Enable auditing

• Configure entity relationship
• Configure auditing

• Honeypots: Decoy systems or services designed to attract attackers. Legitimate users should not access them, so activity on a honeypot is a strong indicator of unauthorized activity. Security teams can also observe attacker behavior.

• DNS sinkhole: Redirects requests for known malicious domains to a controlled internal server or blocks them. If an infected workstation attempts to contact command-and-control infrastructure, the sinkhole records the request and helps identify the compromised device.

• Tokenization: Protects sensitive data by replacing it with tokens.
• CI/CD: Automates software development and deployment.
• Threat modeling: Identifies potential risks before or during system design.
• Data obfuscation: Makes data harder to understand, but does not detect intruders.

• C — “when the query finishes”

• D — “when the query began”

1. Convert text and images into numerical embeddings.
2. Store or compare those embeddings.
3. Retrieve the most semantically similar items.

• Embedding model: Best for similarity search and retrieval.
• Generation model: Best for producing new text or other content from multimodal input.

• Vulnerability scanner: Finds technical weaknesses in systems, applications, or devices. It does not usually analyze the entire supply chain.
• Penetration test: Simulates attacks against a defined target to identify exploitable weaknesses. Its scope is narrower.
• SCAP (Security Content Automation Protocol): Provides standardized formats and methods for automating security configuration and vulnerability checks, rather than mapping the full supply chain.

• Multi-factor authentication
• A secure password change for users whose credentials may be compromised

• Data lakes: scalable, low-cost storage for structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data.
• Data warehouses: reliable SQL analytics, governance, and performance features.

• Data lake: Primarily provides flexible, scalable storage but may lack warehouse-style reliability and governance.
• Data warehouse: Strong for structured analytics but less flexible for raw and unstructured data.
• All of these: The individual lake and warehouse do not, by themselves, unify the siloed architecture.

• Disabling GPS: Affects location services, not email connectivity.
• Configuring 4G usage only: Does not enable international data access and could prevent connectivity if 4G is unavailable.
• Connecting using a hotspot: Could provide data, but it is not the most direct solution and depends on another network or device.

• Aggregation happens once, during the scheduled job.
• Dashboard users query a relatively small, precomputed table.
• Repeated users do not trigger expensive aggregations against the detailed sales table.
• Overwriting is appropriate because the summary is rebuilt for the reporting period.

• B: Structured Streaming is unnecessary for data that only needs daily refreshes and adds operational/compute overhead.
• C: A view recomputes the aggregation at query time, increasing latency and query cost.
• D: Delta caching may improve reads but does not replace the need to materialize the expensive aggregation, and cache availability is not the main design guarantee.

• Amazon S3 — Object storage, not a database.
• Amazon DynamoDB — Fully managed NoSQL key-value and document database.
• Amazon Redshift — Managed data warehouse designed for analytics, not primarily transactional MySQL workloads.

• ARP poisoning: Redirects or intercepts local network traffic; it would more likely affect communication paths or cause man-in-the-middle behavior.
• Jamming: Interferes with wireless signals. The scenario does not indicate a wireless outage.
• Kerberoasting: Attempts to obtain service-account password hashes from Kerberos; it is a credential attack, not typically a direct service outage.

• Árvores de decisão: usam regras sequenciais, como “se característica X > valor, siga para este ramo”. São fáceis de visualizar e explicar. Atendem bem a problemas de classificação e regressão com alta interpretabilidade.

• Regressão linear: prevê um valor numérico contínuo, como preço, custo ou temperatura. Não é a escolha principal para classificar genes em categorias.

• Regressão logística: calcula a probabilidade de uma categoria. Pode atender à classificação, inclusive multiclasses, mas sua explicação costuma ser menos intuitiva que uma árvore para documentar decisões.

• Redes neurais: atendem a tarefas complexas, como imagens, texto e padrões não lineares. Porém, são menos interpretáveis, funcionando mais como uma “caixa-preta”.

• How quickly the vendor must respond to an incident or request
• Target resolution times
• Availability or uptime requirements
• Performance metrics and penalties for not meeting them

• SOW (Statement of Work): Describes the project’s scope, tasks, deliverables, and timeline.
• MOA (Memorandum of Agreement): Documents a formal agreement to cooperate or perform specific activities.
• MOU (Memorandum of Understanding): Records a mutual understanding or intent, often less binding than a contract.

• D. Provide public endpoints to store and retrieve data

• E. Manage the infrastructure layer and the operating system

• Classifying data
• Configuring access permissions, such as IAM policies
• Selecting or configuring available encryption options, depending on the requirement
