Overview

Litware, Inc. is a United States-based grocery retailer. Litware has a main office and a primary datacenter in Seattle. The company has 50 retail stores across the United States and an emerging online presence. Each store connects directly to the internet.



Existing environment. Cloud and Data Service Environments.

Litware has an Azure subscription that contains the resources shown in the following table.





Each container in productdb is configured for manual throughput.

The con-product container stores the company's product catalog data. Each document in con-product includes a con-productvendor value. Most queries targeting the data in con-product are in the following format.

SELECT * FROM con-product p WHERE p.con-productVendor - 'name'

Most queries targeting the data in the con-productVendor container are in the following format

SELECT * FROM con-productVendor pv

ORDER BY pv.creditRating, pv.yearFounded



Existing environment. Current Problems.

Litware identifies the following issues:

Updates to product categories in the con-productVendor container do not propagate automatically to documents in the con-product container.

Application updates in con-product frequently cause HTTP status code 429 "Too many requests". You discover that the 429 status code relates to excessive request unit (RU) consumption during the updates.



Requirements. Planned Changes

Litware plans to implement a new Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account named account2 that will contain a database named iotdb. The iotdb database will contain two containers named con-iot1 and con-iot2.

Litware plans to make the following changes:

Store the telemetry data in account2.

Configure account1 to support multiple read-write regions.

Implement referential integrity for the con-product container.

Use Azure Functions to send notifications about product updates to different recipients. Develop an app named App1 that will run from all locations and query the data in account1. Develop an app named App2 that will run from the retail stores and query the data in account2. App2 must be limited to a single DNS endpoint when accessing account2.



Requirements. Business Requirements

Litware identifies the following business requirements:

Whenever there are multiple solutions for a requirement, select the solution that provides the best performance, as long as there are no additional costs associated. Ensure that Azure Cosmos DB costs for IoT-related processing are predictable.

Minimize the number of firewall changes in the retail stores.



Requirements. Product Catalog Requirements

Litware identifies the following requirements for the product catalog:

Implement a custom conflict resolution policy for the product catalog data.

Minimize the frequency of errors during updates of the con-product container.

Once multi-region writes are configured, maximize the performance of App1 queries against the data in account1.

Trigger the execution of two Azure functions following every update to any document in the con-product container.



You need to identify which connectivity mode to use when implementing App2. The solution must support the planned changes and meet the business requirements.

Which connectivity mode should you identify?

2. You are troubleshooting the current issues caused by the application updates.

Which action can address the application updates issue without affecting the functionality of the application?

3. You need to select the partition key for con-iot1. The solution must meet the IoT telemetry requirements.

What should you select?

4. You configure multi-region writes for account1.

You need to ensure that App1 supports the new configuration for account1. The solution must meet the business requirements and the product catalog requirements.

What should you do?

5. You need to provide a solution for the Azure Functions notifications following updates to con-product. The solution must meet the business requirements and the product catalog requirements.

Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

6. Topic 2, Misc. Questions



You need to configure an Apache Kafka instance to ingest data from an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account. The data from a container named telemetry must be added to a Kafka topic named iot. The solution must store the data in a compact binary format.

Which three configuration items should you include in the solution? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

7. 730610 and longitude: -73.935242.

Administrative effort must be minimized to implement the solution.

What should you configure for each container? To answer, drag the appropriate configurations to the correct containers. Each configuration 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: Each correct selection is worth one point.

8. You have an application named App1 that reads the data in an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account. App1 runs the same read queries every minute. The default consistency level for the account is set to eventual.

You discover that every query consumes request units (RUs) instead of using the cache.

You verify the IntegratedCacheiteItemHitRate metric and the IntegratedCacheQueryHitRate metric. Both metrics have values of 0.

You verify that the dedicated gateway cluster is provisioned and used in the connection

string.

You need to ensure that App1 uses the Azure Cosmos DB integrated cache.

What should you configure?

9. You have the following query.

SELECT * FROM

WHERE c.sensor = "TEMP1"

AND c.value < 22

AND c.timestamp >= 1619146031231

You need to recommend a composite index strategy that will minimize the request units (RUs) consumed by the query.

What should you recommend?

10. DRAG DROP

You have an app that stores data in an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account The app performs queries that return large result sets.

You need to return a complete result set to the app by using pagination. Each page of results must return 80 items.

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.

11. You have a container named container1 in an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account.

You need to provide a user named User1 with the ability to insert items into container1 by using role-based access control (RBAC). The solution must use the principle of least privilege.

Which roles should you assign to User1?

12. HOTSPOT

You plan to deploy two Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API accounts that will each contain a single database.

The accounts will be configured as shown in the following table.





How should you provision the containers within each account to minimize costs? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

13. HOTSPOT

You have an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account named account1.

You have the Azure virtual networks and subnets shown in the following table.





The vnet1 and vnet2 networks are connected by using a virtual network peer.

The Firewall and virtual network settings for account1 are configured as shown in the exhibit.





For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

14. You plan to create an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account that will use customer-managed keys stored in Azure Key Vault.

You need to configure an access policy in Key Vault to allow Azure Cosmos DB access to the keys.

Which three permissions should you enable in the access policy? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

15. You have an Azure Cosmos DB Core (SQL) API account.

You configure the diagnostic settings to send all log information to a Log Analytics workspace.

You need to identify when the provisioned request units per second (RU/s) for resources within the account were modified.

You write the following query.

AzureDiagnostics

| where Category == "ControlPlaneRequests"

What should you include in the query?
