Exam 70-463: Implementing a Data Warehouse with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (update November 22th, 2016)

You need to ensure that the username and password values are encrypted when they are deployed

You are developing a project that contains multiple SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages. The
packages will be deployed to the SSIS catalog. One of the steps in each package accesses an FTP site to
download sales transaction data.
You create project parameters to store the username and password that are used to access the FTP site.
You need to ensure that the username and password values are encrypted when they are deployed.
What should you do?

You need to ensure that more accurate matches are made by the Fuzzy Lookup transformation without degrading pe

You develop a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that imports SQL Azure data into a data
warehouse every night.
The SQL Azure data contains many misspellings and variations of abbreviations. To import the data, a
developer used the Fuzzy Lookup transformation to choose the closest-matching string from a reference
table of allowed values. The number of rows in the reference table is very large.
If no acceptable match is found, the Fuzzy Lookup transformation passes a null value.
The current setting for the Fuzzy Lookup similarity threshold is 0.50.
Many values are incorrectly matched.
You need to ensure that more accurate matches are made by the Fuzzy Lookup transformation without
degrading performance.
What should you do?

You need to create the SSIS catalog on the production server

You install a SQL Server 2012 database engine instance on a production server. A month later, you install
SQL Server 2012 Integration Services (SSIS).
You must develop an SSIS project and deploy it to the server by using the Project Deployment model.
Operations Log records that are outside the configured retention period must be cleaned automatically.
You need to create the SSIS catalog on the production server.
What should you do? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose all that apply.)

Which three actions should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
A SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package named DataFeed interacts with an external vendor data
feed. The package is executed several times a day, either as part of other packages’ control flow or by
itself. The external data feed is unreliable because network failures and slow response times are
frequent. The package is currently deployed on the file system.
To analyze the reliability of the external data feed, you must collect execution data.
Every time the DataFeed package is executed, the following information must be logged:
 Start Time End Time
 Execution Result
 Execution Duration
You need to design a logging solution that meets the requirements by using the least amount of
administrative and development effort.
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.)

Where can you find this information?

A SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package on a computer is failing periodically in production. The
package was created less than one year ago and was deployed to the SSIS catalog.
Sometimes the package is started on a SQL Agent schedule; sometimes the package is started manually
by an SSIS developer by using the Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio.
You need to identify the authenticated user responsible for starting the package each time it failed in
the past.
Where can you find this information?

You need to reduce the report processing time and minimize the growth of the database

You are reviewing the design of an existing fact table named factSales, which is loaded from a SQL Azure
database by a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package each day. The fact table has approximately
1 billion rows and is dimensioned by product, sales date, and sales time of day.

The database administrator is concerned about the growth of the database. Users report poor reporting
performance against this database. Reporting requirements have recently changed and the only
remaining report that uses this fact table reports sales by product name, sale month, and sale year. No
other reports will be created against this table.
You need to reduce the report processing time and minimize the growth of the database.
What should you do?

Which three steps should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
You are editing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that contains a task with a sensitive
property.
You need to create a project parameter and configure it so that its value is encrypted when it is
deployed to the SSIS catalog.
Which three steps 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.)

Which three stored procedures should you execute in sequence?

DRAG DROP
A new SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project is deployed to the SSIS catalog.
To troubleshoot some data issues, you must output the data streaming through several data flows into
text files for further analysis. You have the list of data flow package paths and identification strings of
the various task components that must be analyzed.
You need to create these output files with the least amount of administrative and development effort.Which three stored procedures should you execute in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate
actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

You need to design a solution that can join a single time dimension to both fact tables

You are designing a data warehouse with two fact tables. The first table contains sales per month and
the second table contains orders per day.
Referential integrity must be enforced declaratively.
You need to design a solution that can join a single time dimension to both fact tables.
What should you do?
