You are designing an extract, transform, load (ETL) process for loading data from a SQL Server database into a large fact table in a data warehouse each day with the prior day's sales data.
The ETL process for the fact table must meet the following requirements:
* Load new data in the shortest possible time.
* Remove data that is more than 36 months old.
* Ensure that data loads correctly.
* Minimize record locking.
* Minimize impact on the transaction log.

QUESTION NO: 3
You are loading a dataset into SQL Server. The dataset contains numerous duplicates for the Artist and Song columns.
The values in the Artist column in the dataset must exactly match the values in the Artist domain in the knowledge base. The values in the Song column in the dataset can be a close match with the values in the Song domain.
You need to use SQL Server Data Quality Services (DQS) to define a matching policy rule to identify duplicates.
How should you configure the Rule Editor? (To answer, drag the appropriate answers to the answer area.)

QUESTION NO: 5
You develop a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package in a project by using the Project Deployment Model. It is regularly executed within a multi-step SQL Server Agent job.
You make changes to the package that should improve performance.
You need to establish if there is a trend in the durations of the next 10 successful executions of the package.
You need to use the least amount of administrative effort to achieve this goal.

QUESTION NO: 6
You are designing a data warehouse hosted on Windows Azure SQL Database. The data warehouse currently includes the dimUser and dimRegion dimension tables and the factSales fact table. The dimUser table contains records for each user permitted to run reports against the warehouse, and the dimRegion table contains information about sales regions.
The system is accessed by users from certain regions, as well as by area supervisors and users from the corporate headquarters.
You need to design a table structure to ensure that certain users can see sales data for only certain regions.
Some users must be permitted to see sales data from multiple regions.

QUESTION NO: 7
You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) data flow to load sales transactions from a source system into a data warehouse hosted on Windows Azure SQL Database. One of the columns in the data source is named ProductCode.
Some of the data to be loaded will reference products that need special processing logic in the data flow.
You need to enable separate processing streams for a subset of rows based on the source product code.
Which Data Flow transformation should you use?

QUESTION NO: 12
You administer a Microsoft SQL Server database. Service accounts for SQL Agents are configured to use a local user. A Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) job step has been created within a SQL Server Agent job. The SSIS package accesses a network share when exporting data from a SQL Server database.
When you execute the SQL Server Agent job, it fails due to a permissions failure on a share on a remote server. You need to ensure that the SQL Server Agent job can execute the SSIS package. Which four 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.)
