You are designing an application that will use Windows Azure Table storage to store millions of data points
each day.
The application must retain each day's data for only one week.
You need to recommend an approach for minimizing storage transactions.
What should you recommend?

• A.Use a separate table for each week. Delete each table when it is one week old.
• B.Use a single table, partitioned by date. Use Entity Group Transactions to delete data when it is one week old.
• C.Use a separate table for each date. Delete each table when it is one week old.
• D.Use a single table, partitioned by week. Use Entity Group Transactions to delete data when it is one week old.

You are designing a Windows Azure application that will allow for the processing of image files.
Images will be processed in batches by remote applications running on multiple servers.
The application must meet the following requirements:
-Remain operational during batch-processing operations.
-Allow users to roll back each image to previous versions.
Each remote application must have exclusive access to an image while processing it.
You need to recommend an approach for storing the images.
What should you recommend?

• A.Store the images in Windows Azure Table storage.
• B.Store the images in a Windows Azure Queue.
• C.Store images in a single Windows Azure Drive attached to the web role.
• D.Store the images in Windows Azure Blob storage.

An on-premise .NET application uses an on-premise Microsoft SQL Server 2008 database.
The existing compute infrastructure is insufficient to support peak loads.
You plan to move only the compute-intensive component of the application into Windows Azure.
The component requires access to the on-premise database.
The on-premise database cannot be accessed from outside the network boundary.
You need to recommend a database topology.
What should you recommend?

• A.Configure snapshot replication with the SQL Azure database as publisher and the on-premise database as subscriber.
• B.Use SQL Azure for the on-premise components and the compute-intensive component.
• C.Configure merge replication with the on-premise database as publisher and the SQL Azure database as subscriber.
• D.Configure snapshot replication with the on-premise database as publisher and the SQL Azure database as subscriber.

You are designing a plan for migrating an existing Microsoft SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Azure.
The database includes a SQL Server Agent job that cleans the application log table.
You need to recommend an approach for ensuring that the SQL Server Agent job continues to run without modification.
What should you recommend?

• A.Use SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) to connect to SQL Azure.
• B.Use the SQL Azure Data Sync service.
• C.Connect the existing on-premise SQL Server Agent jobs to SQL Azure.
• D.Run the SQL Server Agent in SQL Azure.

You are designing a Windows Azure application that will use Windows Azure Table storage.
The application will allow teams of users to collaborate on projects.
Each user is a member of only one team.
You have the following requirements:
-Ensure that each user can efficiently query records related to his or her team's projects.
-Minimize data access latency.
You need to recommend an approach for partitioning table storage entities. What should you recommend?

• A.Partition by the current date.
• B.Partition by project.
• C.Partition by user.
• D.Partition by team.
