You are developing an application to track customer sales. You create tables to support the application. You
need to create a database object that meets the following data entry requirements:

What should you create?

DRAG DROP
You have a Microsoft Azure SQL Database named MyDb that uses server version V12.
You plan to use Query Performance Insight to troubleshoot performance problems. The database query store is
not enabled.
You need to enable the database query store to meet the following requirements for the database:
Statistics must be aggregated every 15 minutes.
Query stores must use no more than 1,024 megabytes (MB) of storage.
Query information must be retained for at least 15 days.
Queries must be captured based on resource consumption.
You connect to the database by using SQL Server Managements Studio.
How should you complete the Transact-SQL statements? To answer, drag the appropriate Transact-SQL
segments to the correct locations. Each Transact-SQL segment 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: More than one combination of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correctcombinations you select. Each correct selection is worth one point.

HOTSPOT
You create a database table named FactSales by running the following Transact-SQL statements:

You must optimize the indexes without making changes to the ix_FactSales_EmployeeKey index.
You need to implement a columnstore index for the table.
How should you complete the Transact-SQL code? To answer, select the appropriate Transact-SQL segments
in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

You have a database named DB1. There is no memory-optimized filegroup in the database.
You have a table and a stored procedure that were created by running the following Transact-SQL statements:

The Employee table is persisted on disk. You add 2,000 records to the Employee table.
You need to create an index that meets the following requirements:
Optimizes the performance of the stored procedure.
Covers all the columns required from the Employee table.
Uses FirstName and LastName as included columns.
Minimizes index storage size and index key size.
What should you do?

DRAG DROP
You must create two staging database tables. The tables have the following requirements:

You need to select the correct storage mechanism for each table.
Which storage mechanism should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate table types to the correct tables.
Each table 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.

You need to build a function that meets the following requirements:
Returns multiple rows
Optimizes the performance of the query within the function

DRAG DROP
You have a trigger named CheckTriggerCreation that runs when a user attempts to create a trigger. The
CheckTriggerCreation trigger was created with the ENCRYPTION option and additional proprietary business
logic.
You need to prevent users from running the ALTER and DROP statements or the sp_tableoption stored
procedure.
Which three Transact-SQL segments should you use to develop the solution? To answer, move the appropriate
Transact-SQL segments from the list of Transact-SQL segments to the answer area and arrange them in the
correct order.

Case Study
BackgroundYou have a database named HR1 that includes a table named Employee.
You have several read-only, historical reports that contain regularly changing totals. The reports use multiple
queries to estimate payroll expenses. The queries run concurrently. Users report that the payroll estimate
reports do not always run. You must monitor the database to identify issues that prevent the reports from
running.
You plan to deploy the application to a database server that supports other applications. You must minimize the
amount of storage that the database requires.
Employee Table
You use the following Transact-SQL statements to create, configure, and populate the Employee table:

Application
You have an application that updates the Employees table. The application calls the following stored
procedures simultaneously and asynchronously:
UspA: This stored procedure updates only the EmployeeStatus column.
UspB: This stored procedure updates only the EmployeePayRate column.
The application uses views to control access to data. Views must meet the following requirements:
Allow user access to all columns in the tables that the view accesses.
Restrict updates to only the rows that the view returns.
Exhibit

Both of the stored procedures experience blocking issues. UspB must not abort if UspA commits changes to a
row before UspB commits changes to the same row. UspA must not abort if UspB commits changes to a row
before UspA commits changes to the same row.
You need to specify the transaction isolation levels to enable row versioning.
How should you complete the Transact-SQL statements? To answer, drag the Transact-SQL segments to the
correct locations. Each Transact-SQL segment 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.

Exhibit

Users must only be able to modify data in the Employee table by using the vwEmployee view. You must prevent
users from viewing the view definition in catalog views.
You need to identify the view attribute to use when creating vwEmployee.
In the table below, identify the attributes that you must use.

Exhibit

You are analyzing the performance of the database environment. You discover that locks that are held for a
long period of time as the reports are generated.
You need to generate the reports more quickly. The database must not use additional resources.
