70-767 Practice Test Questions – Implementing a SQL Data Warehouse

1. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

After you answer a question in this sections, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

You have a Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse instance that must be available six months a day for reporting.

You need to pause the compute resources when the instance is not being used.

Solution: You use SQL Server Configuration Manager.

Does the solution meet the goal?

2. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same scenario. For your convenience, the scenario is repeated in each question. Each question presents a different goal and answer choices, but the text of the scenario is exactly the same in each question in this series.

You have a Microsoft SQL Server data warehouse instance that supports several client applications.

The data warehouse includes the following tables: Dimension.SalesTerritory, Dimension.Customer, Dimension.Date, Fact.Ticket, and Fact.Order. The Dimension.SalesTerritory and Dimension.Customer tables are frequently updated. The Fact.Order table is optimized for weekly reporting, but the company wants to change it daily. The Fact.Order table is loaded by using an ETL process. Indexes have been added to the table over time, but the presence of these indexes slows data loading.

All data in the data warehouse is stored on a shared SAN. All tables are in a database named DB1. You have a second database named DB2 that contains copies of production data for a development environment. The data warehouse has grown and the cost of storage has increased. Data older than one year is accessed infrequently and is considered historical.

You have the following requirements:

You are not permitted to make changes to the client applications.

You need to optimize the storage for the data warehouse.

What change should you make?

3. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same or similar answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series. Each question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.

You are a database administrator for an e-commerce company that runs an online store.

The company has three databases as described in the following table.

You plan to load at least one million rows of data each night from DB1 into the OnlineOrder table. You must load data into the correct partitions using a parallel process.

You create 24 Data Flow tasks. You must place the tasks into a component to allow parallel load. After all of the load processes compete, the process must proceed to the next task.

You need to load the data for the OnlineOrder table.

What should you use?

4. You have a Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that includes the control flow shown in the following diagram.

You need to choose the enumerator for the Foreach Loop container.

Which enumerator should you use?

5. You have a data quality project that focuses on the Products catalog for the company. The data includes a product reference number.

The product reference should use the following format: Two letters followed by an asterisk and then four or five numbers. An example of a valid number is XX*55522. Any reference number that does not conform to the format must be rejected during the data cleansing.

You need to add a Data Quality Services (DQS) domain rule in the Products domain.

Which rule should you use?

You plan to deploy a Microsoft SQL server that will host a data warehouse named DB1.

The server will contain four SATA drives configured as a RAID 10 array.

You need to minimize write contention on the transaction log when data is being loaded to the database.

Solution: You replace the SATA disks with SSD disks.

Does this meet the goal?

7. You need to ensure that a downstream system can consume data in a Master Data Services (MDS) system.

What should you configure?

8. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same or similar answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series. Each question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.

You have a database named DB1 that has change data capture enabled.

A Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) job runs once weekly. The job loads changes from DB1 to a data warehouse by querying the change data capture tables.

You remove the Integration Services job.

You need to stop tracking changes to the database. The solution must remove all the change data capture configurations from DB1.

Which stored procedure should you execute?

9. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same or similar answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series. Each question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.

You are loading data from an OLTP database to a data warehouse.

The OLTP database includes a table for sales data and a table for refund data.

The data warehouse contains a single table for all the sales and refund data.

Which component should you use to load the data to the data warehouse?

10. You are building a server to host a data warehouse.

The planned disk activity for-khe data warehouse is five percent write activity and 95 percent read activity.

You need to recommend a storage solution for the data files of the data warehouse.

The solution must meet the following requirements:

*Ensure that the data warehouse is available if two disks fail.

*Minimize hardware costs.

Which RAID configuration should you recommend?
