The data engineer team is configuring environment for development testing, and production before beginning migration on a new data pipeline. The team requires extensive testing on both the code and data resulting from code execution, and the team want to develop and test against similar production data as possible.
A junior data engineer suggests that production data can be mounted to the development testing environments, allowing pre production code to execute against production data. Because all users have Admin privileges in the development environment, the junior data engineer has offered to configure permissions and mount this data for the team.
Which statement captures best practices for this situation?
While investigating a data issue in a Delta table, you wanted to review logs to see when and who updated the table, what is the best way to review this data?
Two data engineers are working on the same Databricks notebook in separate branches. Both have edited the same section of code. When one tries to merge the other's branch into their own using the Databricks Git folders UI, a merge conflict occurs on that notebook file. The UI highlights the conflict and presents options for resolution.
How should the data engineers resolve this merge conflict using Databricks Git folders?
In order to facilitate near real-time workloads, a data engineer is creating a helper function to leverage the schema detection and evolution functionality of Databricks Auto Loader. The desired function will automatically detect the schema of the source directly, incrementally process JSON files as they arrive in a source directory, and automatically evolve the schema of the table when new fields are detected.
The function is displayed below with a blank:
Which response correctly fills in the blank to meet the specified requirements?
A Delta Lake table was created with the below query:
Consider the following query:
DROP TABLE prod.sales_by_store -
If this statement is executed by a workspace admin, which result will occur?
