You have a database that is denormalized. Users make frequent changes to data in a primary table.

You need to ensure that users cannot change the tables directly, and that changes made to the primary table also update any related tables.

What should you implement?

A. the COALESCE function

B. a view

C. a table-valued function

D. the TRY_PARSE function

E. a stored procedure

F. the ISNULL function

G. a scalar function

H. the TRY_CONVERT function

Answer: B

Explanation:

Using an Indexed View would allow you to keep your base data in properly normalized tables and maintain data-integrity while giving you the denormalized "view" of that data.

You create a table named Products by running the following Transact-SQL statement:

You have the following stored procedure:

You need to modify the stored procedure to meet the following new requirements:

- Insert product records as a single unit of work.

- Return error number 51000 when a product fails to insert into the database.

- If a product record insert operation fails, the product information must not be permanently written to the database.

Solution: You run the following Transact-SQL statement:

Does the solution meet the goal?

A. Yes

B. No

Answer: B

Explanation:

With X_ABORT ON the INSERT INTO statement and the transaction will be rolled back when an error is raised, it would then not be possible to ROLLBACK it again in the IF XACT_STATE() <> O ROLLACK TRANSACTION statmen.

Note: A transaction is correctly defined for the INSERT INTO ..VALUES statement, and if there is an error in the transaction it will be caught ant he transaction will be rolled back, finally an error 51000 will be raised.

Note: When SET XACT_ABORT is ON, if a Transact-SQL statement raises a run-time error, the entire transaction is terminated and rolled back.

XACT_STATE is a scalar function that reports the user transaction state of a current running request. XACT_STATE indicates whether the request has an active user transaction, and whether the transaction is capable of being committed.

The states of XACT_STATE are:

0 There is no active user transaction for the current request.

1 The current request has an active user transaction. The request can perform any actions, including writing data and committing the transaction.

2 The current request has an active user transaction, but an error has occurred that has caused the transaction to be classified as an uncommittable transaction.

Q23. DRAG DROP

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same scenario. For your convenience, the scenario is repeated in each question. Each question presents a different goal and answer choices, but the text of the scenario is exactly the same in each question in this series.

You are developing a database to track customer orders. The database contains the following tables: Sales.Customers, Sales.Orders, and Sales.OrderLines. The following table describes the columns in Sales.Customers.

The following table describes the columns in Sales.Orders.

The following table describes the columns in Sales.OrderLines.

You need to create a stored procedure that inserts data into the Customers table. The stored procedure must meet the following requirements:

- Data changes occur as a single unit of work.

- Data modifications that are successful are committed and a value of 0 is returned.

- Data modifications that are unsuccessful are rolled back. The exception severity level is set to 16 and a value of -1 is returned.

- The stored procedure uses a built-it scalar function to evaluate the current condition of data modifications.

- The entire unit of work is terminated and rolled back if a run-time error occurs during execution of the stored procedure.

How should complete the stored procedure definition? To answer, drag the appropriate Transact-SQL segments to the correct targets. Each Transact-SQL segment may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation

Box 1: XACT_ABORT

XACT_ABORT specifies whether SQL Server automatically rolls back the current transaction when a Transact-SQL statement raises a run-time error.

When SET XACT_ABORT is ON, if a Transact-SQL statement raises a run-time error, the entire transaction is terminated and rolled back.

Box 2: COMMIT

Commit the transaction. Box 3: XACT_STATE

Box 4: ROLLBACK

Rollback the transaction

Box 5: THROW

THROW raises an exception and the severity is set to 16.

Requirement: Data modifications that are unsuccessful are rolled back. The exception severity level is set to 16 and a value of -1 is returned.

The FOR SYSTEM_TIME ALL clause returns all the row versions from both the Temporal and History table.

Note: A system-versioned temporal table defined through is a new type of user table in SQL Server 2021, here defined on the last line WITH (SYSTEM_VERSIONING = ON…, is designed to keep a full history of data changes and allow easy point in time analysis.

To query temporal data, the SELECT statement FROM<table> clause has a new clause FOR SYSTEM_TIME with five temporal-specific sub-clauses to query data across the current and history tables.

You have a table named AuditTrail that tracks modifications to data in other tables. The AuditTrail table is updated by many processes. Data input into AuditTrail may contain improperly formatted date time values. You implement a process that retrieves data from the various columns in AuditTrail, but sometimes the process throws an error when it is unable to convert the data into valid date time values.

You need to convert the data into a valid date time value using the en-US format culture code. If the conversion fails, a null value must be returned in the column output. The conversion process must not throw an error.

What should you implement?

A. the COALESCE function

B. a view

C. a table-valued function

D. the TRY_PARSE function

E. a stored procedure

F. the ISNULL function

G. a scalar function

H. the TRY_CONVERT function

Answer: H

Explanation:

A TRY_CONVERT function returns a value cast to the specified data type if the cast succeeds; otherwise, returns null.

A. Option A

B. Option B

C. Option C

D. Option D

E. Option E

F. Option F

G. Option G

H. Option H

Answer: G

Explanation:

A cross join that does not have a WHERE clause produces the Cartesian product of the tables involved in the join. The size of a Cartesian product result set is the number of rows in the first table multiplied by the number of rows in the second table.

Answer:

Explanation:

Box 1: RANK() OVER

RANK returns the rank of each row within the partition of a result set. The rank of a row is one plus the number of ranks that come before the row in question.

ROW_NUMBER and RANK are similar. ROW_NUMBER numbers all rows sequentially (for example 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

Q30. CORRECT TEXT

You work for an organization that monitors seismic activity around volcanos. You have a table named GroundSensors. The table stored data collected from seismic sensors. It includes the columns describes in the following table:

The database also contains a scalar value function named NearestMountain that returns the name of the mountain that is nearest to the sensor.

You need to create a query that shows the average of the normalized readings from the sensors for each mountain. The query must meet the following requirements:

- Include the average normalized readings and nearest mountain name.

- Exclude sensors for which no normalized reading exists.

- Exclude those sensors with value of zero for tremor.

Construct the query using the following guidelines:

- Use one part names to reference tables, columns and functions.

- Do not use parentheses unless required.

- Do not use aliases for column names and table names.

- Do not surround object names with square brackets.
