What should you recommend?

HOTSPOT

You have an on-premises data warehouse that includes the following fact tables. Both tables have the following columns: DataKey, ProductKey, RegionKey.

There are 120 unique product keys and 65 unique region keys.

Queries that use the data warehouse take a long time to complete.

You plan to migrate the solution to use Azure SQL Data Warehouse. You need to ensure that the Azure-based solution optimizes query performance and minimizes processing skew.

What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer:

Explanation:

Box 1: Hash-distributed

Box 2: ProductKey

ProductKey is used extensively in joins.

Hash-distributed tables improve query performance on large fact tables.

Box 3: Round-robin

Box 4: RegionKey

Round-robin tables are useful for improving loading speed.

Consider using the round-robin distribution for your table in the following scenarios:

– When getting started as a simple starting point since it is the default

– If there is no obvious joining key

– If there is not good candidate column for hash distributing the table

– If the table does not share a common join key with other tables

– If the join is less significant than other joins in the query

– When the table is a temporary staging table

Note: A distributed table appears as a single table, but the rows are actually stored across 60 distributions. The rows are distributed with a hash or round-robin algorithm.
