Option A is the correct answer because it uses the FILTER higher-order function correctly to filter out employees with more than 5 years of experience from the array column "employees". It applies a lambda function i -> i.years_exp > 5 that checks if the years of experience of each employee in the array is greater than 5. If this condition is met, the employee is included in the new array column "exp_employees".

The Databricks web application is the user interface that allows you to create and manage workspaces, clusters, notebooks, jobs, and other resources. It is hosted completely in the control plane of the classic Databricks architecture, which includes the backend services that Databricks manages in your Databricks account. The other options are part of the compute plane, which is where your data is processed by compute resources such as clusters. The compute plane is in your own cloud account and network.

The COPY INTO statement is an idempotent operation, which means that it will skip any files that have already been loaded into the target table1. This ensures that the data is not duplicated or corrupted by multiple attempts to load the same file. Therefore, if the data engineer runs the same command every day without specifying the names of the files to be copied with the FILES keyword or a glob pattern with the PATTERN keyword, the statement will only copy the first file that matches the source location and ignore the rest. To avoid this problem, the data engineer should either use the FILES or PATTERN keywords to filter the files to be copied based on the date or some other criteria, or delete the files from the source location after they are copied into the table2.
