Which type of table should you use?

You plan to create a dimension table in Azure Synapse Analytics that will be less than 1 GB.

You need to create the table to meet the following requirements:

• Provide the fastest Query time.

• Minimize data movement during queries.

Which type of table should you use?
A . hash distributed
B. heap
C. replicated
D. round-robin

Answer: C

Explanation:

A replicated table has a full copy of the table accessible on each Compute node. Replicating a table removes the need to transfer data among Compute nodes before a join or aggregation. Since the table has multiple copies, replicated tables work best when the table size is less than 2 GB compressed. 2 GB is not a hard limit.
