NEW QUESTION 1
You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular project that will be used by the finance, sales, and marketing teams.
The sales team reports that the model is too complex and difficult to use. The sales team does not need any information other than sales-related resources in the tabular model. The finance and marketing teams need to see all the resources in the tabular model.
You need to implement a solution that meets the needs of the sales team while minimizing development and administrative effort.
What should you do?

• A. Create a separate partition for each team.
• B. Create a separate data source for each team.
• C. Create a perspective for the sales team.
• D. Enable client side security to filter non-sales data.

Answer: C

NEW QUESTION 2
HOTSPOT
You need to configure the project option settings to minimize deployment time for the CustomerAnalysis data model.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate setting from each list in the answer area.

Answer:

Explanation: Scenario:
Box 1, Processing option:Default
Process Default detects the process state of database objects, and performs processing necessary to deliver unprocessed or partially processed objects to a fully processed state. If you change a data binding, Process Default will do a Process Full on the affected object.
Note: Processing Method This setting controls whether the deployed objects are processed after deployment and the type of processing that will be performed. There are three processing options:
Default processing (default) Full processing
None
Box 2, Transactional deployment: False
If this option is False, Analysis Services deploys the metadata changes in a single transaction, and deploys each processing command in its own transaction.
Scenario: The CustomerAnalysis data model will contain a large amount of data and needs to be shared with other developers even if a deployment fails. Each time you deploy a change during development, processing takes a long time.

NEW QUESTION 3
HOTSPOT
A database named DB2 uses the InMemory query mode. Users frequently run the following
query:

You need to configure SQL Server Profiler to determine why the query is performing poorly. Which three event should you monitor on the SQL Server Profiler trace events
configuration page? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

Answer:

Explanation: By using SQL Profiler, you can intercept two classes of trace events from Analysis Services, DAX Query Plan and DirectQuery events, both generated by the DirectQuery engine. Here, in this scenario we have a DAX Query.
DAX Query Plan events are generated by the DAX formula.
By using the In-Memory mode, you store a copy of data in the xVelocity (VertiPaq) storage engine.
Figure: This is how a query is executed by using In-Memory mode.

References: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services, The BISM Tabular Model, Microsoft Press (July 2012), page 331
From Scenario: Users report that the query takes a long time to complete.

question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.
You have a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use multidimensional mode. You create the following cube:

You need to create a new dimension that allows users to list shipments by the country where the product is shipped.
Which relationship type should you use between the Shipment table and the new dimension?

• A. no relationship
• B. regular
• C. fact
• D. referenced
• E. many-to-many
• F. data mining

Answer: E

Explanation: Many to Many Dimension Relationships.
In most dimensions, each fact joins to one and only one dimension member, and a single dimension member can be associated with multiple facts. In relational database terminology, this is referred to as a one-to-many relationship. However, it is frequently useful to join a single fact to multiple dimension members. For example, a bank customer might have multiple accounts (checking, saving, credit card, and investment accounts), and
an account can also have joint or multiple owners. The Customer dimension constructed from such relationships would then have multiple members that relate to a single account transaction.

NEW QUESTION 5
Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution. Determine whether the solution meets the stated goals.
A company has an e-commerce website. When a customer places an order, information about the transaction is inserted into tables in a Microsoft SQL Server relational database named OLTP1. The company has a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use Tabular mode. SSAS uses data from OLTP1 to populate a data model.
Sales analysts build reports based on the SSAS model. Reports must be able to access data as soon as it is available in the relational database.
You need to configure and deploy an Analysis Services project to the Analysis Services instance that allows near real-time data source access.
Solution: In the Deployment Option property for the report, you set the Query Mode to InMemory with DirectQuery.
Does the solution meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: B

Explanation: With InMemory with DirectQuery: Queries use the cache by default, unless otherwise specified in the connection string from the client.

NEW QUESTION 6
You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular project.
In the data warehouse, a table named Sales Persons and Territories defines a relationship between a salesperson's name, logon ID, and assigned sales territory.
You need to ensure that each salesperson has access to data from only the sales territory assigned to that salesperson. You need to use the least amount of development effort to achieve this goal.
What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

• A. Create a new role named Sales Persons with Read permissio
• B. Add each salesperson's logon as a member to the role.
• C. Add the Sales Persons and Territories table to the model, define the relationships, and then implement dynamic security by using row filter
• D. Grant each salesperson access to the model.
• E. Create a new Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) security group and add each salesperson as a membe
• F. Then create a new role named Sales Persons with Read permissio
• G. Add the group as a member to the new role.
• H. Create a separate tabular model for each sales territory and assign each tabular model a corresponding sales territory nam
• I. Grant each salesperson access to the corresponding tabular model of the assigned sales territory.

Answer: B

NEW QUESTION 7
HOTSPOT
You are deploying a multidimensional Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) project. You add two new role-playing dimensions named Picker and Salesperson to the cube. Both of the cube dimensions are based upon the underlying dimension named Employee in the data source view.
Users report that they are unable to differentiate the Salesperson attributes from the Picker attributes.
You need to ensure that the Salesperson and Picker attributes in each dimension use unique names.
In the table below, identify an option that you would use as part of the process to alter the names of the attributes for each of the dimensions.
NOTE: Make only one selection in each column.

Answer:

Explanation: A named query is a SQL expression represented as a table. In a named query, you can specify an SQL expression to select rows and columns returned from one or more tables in one or more data sources. A named query is like any other table in a data source view (DSV) with rows and relationships, except that the named query is based on an expression.
A named query lets you extend the relational schema of existing tables in DSV without modifying the underlying data source.

Each question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.
You administer a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular model for a travel agency that specializes in vacation packages. Vacation bookings and packages are stored in a SQL Server database. You use the model as the basis for customer emails that highlight vacation packages that are currently underbooked, or projected to be underbooked.
The company plans to incorporate cruise ship vacation packages. Cruise ship vacation packages include new features such as region availability and cruise line specialties that require changes to the tabular model.
You must ensure that the tabular model reflects the new vacation packages. You need to configure the tabular data model.
What should you do?

• A. Ensure that DirectQuery is enabled for the model.
• B. Ensure that DirectQuery is disabled for the model.
• C. Ensure that the Transactional Deployment property is set to True.
• D. Ensure that the Transactional Deployment property is set to False.
• E. Process the model in Process Full mode.
• F. Process the model in Process Data mode.
• G. Process the model in Process Defrag mode.

Answer: E

Explanation: Process Full processes an Analysis Services object and all the objects that it contains. When Process Full is executed against an object that has already been processed, Analysis Services drops all data in the object, and then processes the object. This kind of processing is required when a structural change has been made to an object, for example, when an attribute hierarchy is added, deleted, or renamed.

You have a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use multidimensional mode. You create the following cube:

Users need to be able to analyze sales by product and color. You need to create the dimension.
Which relationship type should you use between the InternetSales table and the new dimension?

• A. no relationship
• B. regular
• C. fact
• D. referenced
• E. many-to-many
• F. data mining

Answer: D

Explanation: A reference dimension relationship between a cube dimension and a measure group exists when the key column for the dimension is joined indirectly to the fact table through a key in another dimension table, as shown in the following illustration.

A reference dimension relationship represents the relationship between dimension tables and a fact table in a snowflake schema design. When dimension tables are connected in a snowflake schema, you can define a single dimension using columns from multiple tables, or you can define separate dimensions based on the separate dimension tables and then define a link between them using the reference dimension relationship setting. The following figure shows one fact table named InternetSales, and two dimension tables called Customer and Geography, in a snowflake schema.

You can create two dimensions related to the InternetSales measure group: a dimension based on the Customer table, and a dimension based on the Geography table. You can then relate the Geography dimension to the InternetSales measure group using a reference dimension relationship using the Customer dimension.
