Exam 70-463: Implementing a Data Warehouse with Microsoft SQL Server 2012

How should you design the controlflow for the package?

DRAG DROP
You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services(SSIS) package. The package moves order-related data
to a staging table named Order. Every night the staging data is truncated and then all the recent orders from
the online store database are inserted into the staging table. Your package must meet the following
requirements:
If the truncate operation fails, the package execution must stop and report an error.
If the Data Flow task that moves the data to the staging table fails, the entire refresh operation must be
rolled back.
For auditing purposes, a log entry must be entered in a SQL log table after each execution of the DataFlow
task.
The TransactionOption property for the package is set to Required. You need to design the package to meet
the requirements. How should you design the controlflow for the package? (To answer, drag the appropriate
setting from the list of settings to the correct location or locations in the answer area.)

How should youdesign the data flow outputs?

DRAG AND DROP
You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to insert new data into a data mart. The
package uses a Lookup transformation to find matches between the source and destination. The data flowhas
the following requirements:
New rows must be inserted.
Lookup failures must be written to a flat file.
In the Lookup transformation, the setting for rows with no matching entries is set to Redirect rows tono match
output. You need to configure the package to directdata into the correct destinations. How should youdesign
the data flow outputs? (To answer, drag the appropriate transformation from the list of answer optionsto the
correct location in the answer area.)

Which three steps should you perform in sequence?

You are building a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to load product data sourced from a SQL
Azure database to a data warehouse. Before the product data is loaded, you create a batch record by using an
Execute SQL task named Create Batch. After successfully loading the product data, you use another Execute
SQL task named Set Batch Success to mark the batch as successful.

You need to create and execute an Execute SQL task to mark the batch as failed if either the Create Batch or
Load Products task fails. Which three steps should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the
appropriate actions from the list of actions to theanswer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

You need to ensure that the Merge Join transformation works correctly without additional transformations

You are developing a data flow transformation to merge two data sources. One source contains product data
and the other source contains data about the country in which the product was manufactured. Both data
sources contain a two-character CountryCode column and both use SQL Server. Both data sources contain an
ORDER BY clause to sort the data by the CountryCodecolumn in ascending order. You use a Merge Join
transformation to join the data.

You need to ensure that the Merge Join transformation works correctly without additional transformations. What
should you do? (Each answer presents a part of the solution. Choose all that apply.)

Which page of the Lookup TransformationEditor should you select to configure the query?

HOTSPOT
You are developing a data flow to load sales data into a fact table. In the data flow, you configure aLookup
Transformation in full cache mode to look up the product data for the sale. The lookup source for the product
data is contained in two tables. You need to set the data source for the lookup to be a query that combines the
two tables. Which page of the Lookup TransformationEditor should you select to configure the query? To
answer, select the appropriate page in the answer area.

How should you use a MERGE T-SQL statement to accomplish this goal?

DRAG DROP
You are creating a sales data warehouse. When a product exists in the product dimension, you update the
product name. When a product does not exist, you insert a new record. In the current implementation, the
DimProduct table must be scanned twice, once for the insert and again for the update. As a result, inserts and
updates to the DimProduct table take longer than expected. You need to create a solution that uses a single
command to perform an update and an insert. How should you use a MERGE T-SQL statement to accomplish
this goal? (To answer, drag the appropriate answer choice from the list of options to the correct location or
locations in the answer area. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.)

How should you develop the data flow?

DRAG DROP
You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that imports unsorted data into a data
warehouse hosted on SQL Azure. You have the following requirements:
A destination table must contain all of the data intwo source tables.
Duplicate records must be inserted into the destination table.
You need to develop a data flow that imports the data while meeting the requirements. How should you develop
the data flow? (To answer, drag the appropriate transformation from the list of transformations to thecorrect
location in the answer area.)

Which settings should you select?

DRAG AND DROP
You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that imports data into a data
warehouse. You are developing the part of the SSIS package that populates the ProjectDates dimension table.
The business key of the ProjectDates table is the ProjectName column. The business user has given you the
dimensional attribute behavior for each of the fourcolumns in the ProjectDates table:
ExpectedStartDate – New values should be tracked over time.
ActualStartDate – New values should not be accepted.
ExpectedEndDate – New values should replace existing values.
ActualEndDate – New values should be tracked over time.
You use the SSIS Slowly Changing Dimension Transformation. You must configure the Change Type value for
each source column. Which settings should you select? (To answer, select the appropriate setting or settings in
the answer area. Each Change Type may be used once,more than once, or not at all.)

Which data import command and recovery model shouldyou choose?

You administer a Microsoft SQL Server database. Youwant to import data from a text file to the database. You
need to ensure that the following requirements are met:
Data import is performed by using a stored procedure.
Data is loaded as a unit and is minimally logged.
Which data import command and recovery model shouldyou choose? (To answer, drag the appropriate data
import command or recovery model to the appropriatelocation or locations in the answer area. Each data
import command or recovery model may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to dragthe
split bar between panes or scroll to view content.)

How should you configure the transaction properties?

DRAG AND DROP
You are designing a package control flow. The package moves sales order data from a SQL Azure
transactional database to an on-premise reporting database. The package will run several times a day, while
new sales orders are being added to the transactional database. The current design of the package control flow
is shown in the answer area. (Refer to the Exhibit.)

The Insert New Orders Data Flow task must meet the following requirements:
Usage of the tempdb database should not be impacted.
Concurrency should be maximized, while only readingcommitted transactions.
If the task fails, only that task needs to be rolled back.
You need to configure the Insert New Orders Data Flow task to meet the requirements. How should you
configure the transaction properties? (To answer, select the appropriate setting or settings in the answer area.)
