  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:


Semi-structured data
Semi-structured data (e.g., JSON, CSV, XML) is the ג€bridgeג€ between structured and unstructured data. It does not have a predefined data model and is more complex than structured data, yet easier to store than unstructured data.

Which property of a transactional workload guarantees that each transaction is treated as a single unit that either succeeds completely or fails completely?

  1. atomicity
  2. isolation
  3. durability
  4. consistency

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The purpose of making transactions atomic is to prevent different transactions from interfering with one another. This can only happen if more than one user process is trying to access the database at the same time, as when a server allows several clients to use it concurrently. The simplest way to enforce atomicity is for the DBMS to refuse to start any transaction until the previous one has committed.

You have a data store that has the structure shown in the following exhibit.
Which type of data store is this?

  1. key/value
  2. object data
  3. graph
  4. time series

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

A graph database stores two types of information, nodes and edges. Edges specify relationships between nodes. Nodes and edges can have properties that provide information about that node or edge, similar to columns in a table. Edges can also have a direction indicating the nature of the relationship.

Explanation:




A data analyst's primary skill set revolves around data acquisition, handling, and processing.
Incorrect:
* A data engineer requires an intermediate level understanding of programming to build thorough algorithms along with a mastery of statistics and math.
* A data scientist needs to be a master of both worlds. Data, stats, and math along with in-depth programming knowledge for Machine Learning and Deep
Learning.

Question 4:
Question 4 is about when to use batch processing.

  • Answer key: A (the option related to “When to use batch processing”).
  • Core idea: Batch processing is used when you can tolerate some delay and don’t need results instantly. Data is collected over a period, then processed together in a batch.

Why this is correct:
  • Latencies are expected with batch jobs. The system processes data in groups rather than as soon as data arrives.
  • The processes are often not mission-critical at the exact moment they run, so delays don’t impact operations.

Key concepts to know:
  • Batch processing vs real-time processing: Batch processes collect data and run at scheduled times or when resources are available, whereas real-time processing handles data immediately.
  • When to use batch processing:
- High-volume data where immediate results aren’t required - Tasks that can be scheduled (e.g., nightly ETL, end-of-day payroll, bulk reports) - When cost or resource utilization is optimized by processing in groups
Examples: nightly data aggregation, batch payroll processing, end-of-day reconciliations.
If you want, I can walk through how to identify the right scenario for batch vs real-time in practice.

The DP-900 exam can be tricky if you aren't familiar with Microsoft’s specific cloud terminology. I used the practice questions from free-braindumps.com and found them incredibly helpful. The site breaks down core data concepts and Azure services in a way that actually mirrors the real test. As a resutl I passed my exam.
