Databricks-Certified-Data-Engineer-Professional Exam Question 91

An hourly batch job is configured to ingest data files from a cloud object storage container where each batch represent all records produced by the source system in a given hour. The batch job to process these records into the Lakehouse is sufficiently delayed to ensure no late-arriving data is missed. The user_id field represents a unique key for the data, which has the following schema:
user_id BIGINT, username STRING, user_utc STRING, user_region STRING, last_login BIGINT, auto_pay BOOLEAN, last_updated BIGINT New records are all ingested into a table named account_history which maintains a full record of all data in the same schema as the source. The next table in the system is named account_current and is implemented as a Type 1 table representing the most recent value for each unique user_id.
Assuming there are millions of user accounts and tens of thousands of records processed hourly, which implementation can be used to efficiently update the described account_current table as part of each hourly batch job?

    A Structured Streaming job deployed to production has been resulting in higher than expected cloud storage costs. At present, during normal execution, each microbatch of data is processed in less than 3s; at least 12 times per minute, a microbatch is processed that contains 0 records. The streaming write was configured using the default trigger settings. The production job is currently scheduled alongside many other Databricks jobs in a workspace with instance pools provisioned to reduce start-up time for jobs with batch execution.
    Holding all other variables constant and assuming records need to be processed in less than 10 minutes, which adjustment will meet the requirement?

    In a Databricks Asset Bundle project, in the file resources/app.yml, the data engineer would like to deploy a Databricks Apps databricks_app_deployed and Volume volume_deployed and grant the Service Principal behind Databricks Apps permissions to READ and WRITE to the Volume.
    How should the data engineer achieve the deployment?

    A data engineer is designing a Lakeflow Declarative Pipeline to process streaming order data.
    The pipeline uses Auto Loader to ingest data and must enforce data quality by ensuring customer_id and amount are greater than zero. Invalid records should be dropped. Which Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines configurations implement this requirement using Python?
