A data engineering team is building a new data-transformation notebook. During development, the engineers need fast testing, quick code changes, and easy debugging. Later, the notebook will run nightly as a scheduled job without human intervention. The team wants to optimize for development speed.
Which compute should the team use during development?
A data engineer is designing a data pipeline. The source system generates files in a shared directory that is also used by other processes. As a result, the files should be kept as is and will accumulate in the directory.
The data engineer needs to identify which files are new since the previous run in the pipeline, and set up the pipeline to only ingest those new files with each run.
Which of the following tools can the data engineer use to solve this problem?
A data engineer has been given a new record of data:
id STRING = 'a1'
rank INTEGER = 6
rating FLOAT = 9.4
Which of the following SQL commands can be used to append the new record to an existing Delta table my_table?
A data organization leader is upset about the data analysis team's reports being different from the data engineering team's reports. The leader believes the siloed nature of their organization's data engineering and data analysis architectures is to blame.
Which of the following describes how a data lakehouse could alleviate this issue?
A data engineering team wants to validate a new ingestion pipeline locally while ensuring large aggregations run in serverless compute in their Databricks workspace. They plan to use Databricks Connect and have the option to attach to either a shared cluster or serverless.
Which workspace requirement should be confirmed first to avoid connection failures?
