QUESTION: 59 Exam Topic: Design and implement data storage questions

You need to implement a Type 3 slowly changing dimension (SCD) for product category data in an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool.

You have a table that was created by using the following Transact-SQL statement.

Which two columns should you add to the table? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer(s): B,E

Explanation:

A Type 3 SCD supports storing two versions of a dimension member as separate columns. The table includes a column for the current value of a member plus either the original or previous value of the member. So Type 3 uses additional columns to track one key instance of history, rather than storing additional rows to track each change like in a Type 2 SCD.
This type of tracking may be used for one or two columns in a dimension table. It is not common to use it for many members of the same table. It is often used in combination with Type 1 or Type 2 members.

QUESTION: 60 Exam Topic: Design and implement data storage questions

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You have an Azure subscription.

You plan to build a data warehouse in an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool named pool1 that will contain staging tables and a dimensional model. Pool1 will contain the following tables.

You need to design the table storage for pool1. The solution must meet the following requirements:

-Maximize the performance of data loading operations to Staging.WebSessions.
-Minimize query times for reporting queries against the dimensional model.

Which type of table distribution should you use for each table? To answer, drag the appropriate table distribution types to the correct tables. Each table distribution type may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Box 1: Replicated
The best table storage option for a small table is to replicate it across all the Compute nodes.

Box 2: Hash
Hash-distribution improves query performance on large fact tables.

Box 3: Round-robin
Round-robin distribution is useful for improving loading speed.

QUESTION: 61 Exam Topic: Design and implement data storage questions

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You have an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool.

You need to create a table named FactInternetSales that will be a large fact table in a dimensional model. FactInternetSales will contain 100 million rows and two columns named SalesAmount and OrderQuantity. Queries executed on FactInternetSales will aggregate the values in SalesAmount and OrderQuantity from the last year for a specific product. The solution must minimize the data size and query execution time.

How should you complete the code? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Box 1: (CLUSTERED COLUMNSTORE INDEX
CLUSTERED COLUMNSTORE INDEX
Columnstore indexes are the standard for storing and querying large data warehousing fact tables. This index uses column-based data storage and query processing to achieve gains up to 10 times the query performance in your data warehouse over traditional row-oriented storage. You can also achieve gains up to 10 times the data compression over the uncompressed data size. Beginning with SQL Server 2016 (13.x) SP1, columnstore indexes enable operational analytics: the ability to run performant real-time analytics on a transactional workload.

Note: Clustered columnstore index
A clustered columnstore index is the physical storage for the entire table.

To reduce fragmentation of the column segments and improve performance, the columnstore index might store some data temporarily into a clustered index called a deltastore and a B-tree list of IDs for deleted rows. The deltastore operations are handled behind the scenes. To return the correct query results, the clustered columnstore index combines query results from both the columnstore and the deltastore.

Box 2: HASH([ProductKey])
A hash distributed table distributes rows based on the value in the distribution column. A hash distributed table is designed to achieve high performance for queries on large tables.

Choose a distribution column with data that distributes evenly

Incorrect:
* Not HASH([OrderDateKey]). Is not a date column. All data for the same date lands in the same distribution. If several users are all filtering on the same date, then only 1 of the 60 distributions do all the processing work

* 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.

* A round-robin table distributes table rows evenly across all distributions. The rows are distributed randomly. Loading data into a round-robin table is fast. Keep in mind that queries can require more data movement than the other distribution methods.
