Helping Hand Questions for Databricks-Certified-Data-Engineer-Associate

Delta Live Tables is a declarative framework for building reliable, maintainable, and testable data processing pipelines. You define the transformations to perform on your data and Delta Live Tables manages task orchestration, cluster management, monitoring, data quality, and error handling. Delta Live Tables supports both SQL and Python as the languages for defining your datasets and expectations. Delta Live Tables also supports both streaming and batch sources, and can handle both append-only and upsert data patterns. Delta Live Tables follows the medallion lakehouse architecture, which consists of three layers of data: bronze, silver, and gold. Therefore, migrating to Delta Live Tables does not require any of the changes listed in the options B, C, D, or E. The data engineer and data analyst can use the same languages, sources, and architecture as before, and simply declare their datasets and expectations using Delta Live Tables syntax. References:

he approach that can be used to identify the owner of new_table is to review the Owner field in the table’s page in Data Explorer. Data Explorer is a web-based interface that allows users to browse, create, and manage data objects such as tables, views, and functions in Databricks1. The table’s page in Data Explorer provides various information about the table, such as its schema, partitions, statistics, history, and permissions2. The Owner field shows the name and email address of the user who created or owns the table3. The data engineer can use this information to contact the table owner and request for permission to access the table.

The other options are not correct or reliable for identifying the owner of new_table. Reviewing the Permissions tab in the table’s page in Data Explorer can show the users and groups who have access to the table, but not necessarily the owner4. Reviewing the Owner field in the table’s page in the cloud storage solution can be misleading, as the owner of the data files may not be the same as the owner of the table5. There is a way to identify the owner of the table, as explained above, so option E is false.

In Python, the == operator is used to compare the values of two variables, while the = operator is used to assign a value to a variable. Therefore, option A and E are incorrect, as they use the = operator for comparison. Option B and C are also incorrect, as they compare the review_period variable to a string value "True", which is different from the boolean value True. Option D is the correct answer, as it uses the == operator to compare the day_of_week variable to the integer value 1, and the and operator to check if both conditions are true. If both conditions are true, then the final block of the Python program will be executed. References: [Python Operators], [Python If … Else]
