Exam 70-463: Implementing a Data Warehouse with Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (update April 12th, 2016)

You need to design a solution that meets the requirements

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) solution. The solution will
contain an SSIS project that includes several SSIS packages. Each SSIS package will
define the same connection managers and variables.
You have the following requirements:
Ensure that the deployment model supports changing the content of connection strings by
using parameters at execution time.
Ensure that the deployment model automatically starts from calls to the
catalog.start_execution stored procedure in the SSISDB database.
Maximize performance at execution time.
Minimize development effort.
You need to design a solution that meets the requirements.
What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST
answer.)

what sequence should you order four of the listed components for the data flow task?

DRAG DROP
You are creating a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to populate a fact table
from a source table. The fact table and source table are located in a SQL Azure database.
The source table has a price field and a tax field. The OLE DB source uses the data access
mode of Table.
You have the following requirements:
The fact table must populate a column named TotalCost that computes the sum of the price
and tax columns.
Before the sum is calculated, any records that have a price of zero must be discarded.
You need to create the SSIS package in SQL Server Data Tools.
In what sequence should you order four of the listed components for the data flow task? (To
answer, move the appropriate components from the list of components to the answer area
and arrange them in the correct order.)

Which three actions should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to execute 12
Transact-SQL (T-SQL) statements on a SQL Azure database. The T-SQL statements may
be executed in any order. The T-SQL statements have unpredictable execution times.
You have the following requirements:
The package must maximize parallel processing of the T-SQL statements.
After all the T-SQL statements have completed, a Send Mail task must notify administrators.
You need to design the SSIS package. 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.)

Which three actions should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
You plan to deploy a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project by using the project
deployment model.
You need to monitor control flow tasks to determine whether any of them are running longer
than usual. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the
appropriate actions from the list ofactions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct
order.)

You need to partition the table to maximize the performance of queries

You are designing a partitioning strategy for a large fact table in a data warehouse. Tens of
millions of new records are loaded into the data warehouse weekly, outside of business
hours.
Most queries are generated by reports and by cube processing. Data is frequently queried at
the day level and occasionally at the month level.
You need to partition the table to maximize the performance of queries. What should you
do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

You need to design an ETL process that meets the requirements

You are designing an extract, transform, load (ETL) process for loading data from a SQL
Server database into a large fact table in a data warehouse each day with the prior day’s
sales data.
The ETL process for the fact table must meet the following requirements:
Load new data in the shortest possible time.
Remove data that is more than 36 months old.
Ensure that data loads correctly.
Minimize record locking.
Minimize impact on the transaction log.
You need to design an ETL process that meets the requirements. What should you do?
(More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

You need to design the fact table to meet the requirements

You are designing a fact table in a SQL Server database.
The fact table must meet the following requirements:
Include a columnstore index.
Allow users to choose up to 10 dimension tables and up to five facts at one time.
Maximize performance of queries that aggregate measures by using any of the 10
dimensions.
Support billions of rows.
Use the most efficient design strategy.
You need to design the fact table to meet the requirements. What should you do? (More
than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

Which three actions should you perform in sequence?

DRAG DROP
You are validating whether a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package named
Master.dtsx in the SSIS catalog is executing correctly.
You need to display the number of rows in each buffer passed between each data flow
component of the package.
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.)

Which configuration type should you use?

HOTSPOT
You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package configuration strategy.
The package configuration must meet the following requirements:
Include multiple properties in a configuration.
Force packages to load all settings in the configuration.
Support Encrypting File System (EFS) formats.
You need to select the appropriate configuration.
Which configuration type should you use?
To answer, select the appropriate option from the drop-down list in the dialog box.

You need to design the SSIS solution to meet the requirements

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) solution that will load multiple
Online Transactional Processing (OLTP) data sources into a SQL Server data mart.
You have the following requirements:
Ensure that the process supports the creation of an exception report that details possible
duplicate key values, null ratios within columns, and column-length distributions of values.
Ensure that users can generate the exception report in an XML format.
Use the minimum development effort.
You need to design the SSIS solution to meet the requirements. What should you do? (More
than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)
