How should you configure the table? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Question 91
Correct answer: Question 91

Explanation:

Box 1: Hash

Hash-distributed tables improve query performance on large fact tables. They can have very large numbers of rows and still achieve high performance.

Incorrect Answers:

Round-robin tables are useful for improving loading speed.

Box 2: Clustered columnstore

When creating partitions on clustered columnstore tables, it is important to consider how many rows belong to each partition. For optimal compression and performance of clustered columnstore tables, a minimum of 1 million rows per distribution and partition is needed.

Box 3: Date

Table partitions enable you to divide your data into smaller groups of data. In most cases, table partitions are created on a date column. Partition switching can be used to quickly remove or replace a section of a table.
