Which of the following commands could the data engineering team use to access sales in PySpark?
Which of the following tools is used by Auto Loader process data incrementally?
Which of the following commands will return the number of null values in the member_id column?
A data engineer is attempting to drop a Spark SQL table my_table and runs the following command:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table;
After running this command, the engineer notices that the data files and metadata files have been deleted from the file system.
Which of the following describes why all of these files were deleted?
A data engineer has realized that they made a mistake when making a daily update to a table. They need to use Delta time travel to restore the table to a version that is 3 days old. However, when the data engineer attempts to time travel to the older version, they are unable to restore the data because the data files have been deleted.
Which of the following explains why the data files are no longer present?
Which of the following describes the relationship between Gold tables and Silver tables?
A data engineer has joined an existing project and they see the following query in the project repository:
CREATE STREAMING LIVE TABLE loyal_customers AS
SELECT customer_id -
FROM STREAM(LIVE.customers)
WHERE loyalty_level = 'high';
Which of the following describes why the STREAM function is included in the query?
A data engineer has a Job with multiple tasks that runs nightly. Each of the tasks runs slowly because the clusters take a long time to start.
Which of the following actions can the data engineer perform to improve the start up time for the clusters used for the Job?
What is stored in a Databricks customer's cloud account?
A data engineer needs access to a table new_table, but they do not have the correct permissions. They can ask the table owner for permission, but they do not know who the table owner is.
Which of the following approaches can be used to identify the owner of new_table?
A data engineer is designing a data pipeline. The source system generates files in a shared directory that is also used by other processes. As a result, the files should be kept as is and will accumulate in the directory. The data engineer needs to identify which files are new since the previous run in the pipeline, and set up the pipeline to only ingest those new files with each run.
Which of the following tools can the data engineer use to solve this problem?
Which of the following Structured Streaming queries is performing a hop from a Silver table to a Gold table?
A data engineer wants to create a new table containing the names of customers that live in France.
They have written the following command:
A senior data engineer mentions that it is organization policy to include a table property indicating that the new table includes personally identifiable information (PII).
Which of the following lines of code fills in the above blank to successfully complete the task?
A new data engineering team team has been assigned to an ELT project. The new data engineering team will need full privileges on the table sales to fully manage the project.
Which of the following commands can be used to grant full permissions on the database to the new data engineering team?
A data engineer has configured a Structured Streaming job to read from a table, manipulate the data, and then perform a streaming write into a new table.
The cade block used by the data engineer is below:
If the data engineer only wants the query to execute a micro-batch to process data every 5 seconds, which of the following lines of code should the data engineer use to fill in the blank?
Which of the following commands can be used to write data into a Delta table while avoiding the writing of duplicate records?
A Delta Live Table pipeline includes two datasets defined using streaming live table. Three datasets are defined against Delta Lake table sources using live table.
The table is configured to run in Production mode using the Continuous Pipeline Mode.
What is the expected outcome after clicking Start to update the pipeline assuming previously unprocessed data exists and all definitions are valid?
A data engineer needs to determine whether to use the built-in Databricks Notebooks versioning or version their project using Databricks Repos.
Which of the following is an advantage of using Databricks Repos over the Databricks Notebooks versioning?
A data engineer has a Python notebook in Databricks, but they need to use SQL to accomplish a specific task within a cell. They still want all of the other cells to use Python without making any changes to those cells.
Which of the following describes how the data engineer can use SQL within a cell of their Python notebook?
A data engineer has been given a new record of data:
id STRING = 'a1'
rank INTEGER = 6
rating FLOAT = 9.4
Which of the following SQL commands can be used to append the new record to an existing Delta table my_table?
A data engineer has left the organization. The data team needs to transfer ownership of the data engineer’s Delta tables to a new data engineer. The new data engineer is the lead engineer on the data team.
Assuming the original data engineer no longer has access, which of the following individuals must be the one to transfer ownership of the Delta tables in Data Explorer?
A data engineer wants to schedule their Databricks SQL dashboard to refresh once per day, but they only want the associated SQL endpoint to be running when it is necessary.
