Q1. - (Topic 3)
Topic 3, Data Architect
General Background
You are the data architect for a company that uses SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition. You design data modeling and reporting solutions that are based on a sales data warehouse.
Background
The solutions will be deployed on the following servers: . ServerA runs SQL Server Database Engine, ServerA is the data warehouse server. . ServerB runs SQL Server Database Engine, SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) in multidimensional mode, and SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS). . ServerC runs SSAS in tabular mode, SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
running in SharePoint mode, and Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Edition with SP1.
The data warehouse schema currently contains the tables shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
Business Requirements
The reporting solution must address the requirements of the sales team, as follows:
. Team members must be able to view standard reports from SharePoint.
. Team members must be able to perform ad-hoc analysis by using Microsoft Power
View and Excel.
. Team members can have standard reports delivered to them on a schedule of
their choosing.
The standard reports
..
Will use a sales territory hierarchy for organizing data by region. Will be accessible from SharePoint.
The Excel ad-hoc reports
..
Will use the same data store as the standard reports.
Will provide direct access to the data store for the sales team and a simplified view
for the executive team.
Technical Requirements
The standard reports must be based on an SSAS cube. The schema of the data warehouse on ServerA must be able to support the ability to slice the fact data by the following dates:
...
Order date (OrderDateKey) Due date (DueDateKey) Ship date (ShipDateKey)
Additions and modifications to the data warehouse schema must adhere to star schema design principles to minimize maintenance and complexity . The multidimensional and tabular models will be based on the data warehouse. The tabular and multidimensional models will be created by using SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT). The tabular project is named AdhocReports and the multidimensional project is named Standard Reports. The cube design in the Standard Reports project must define two measures for the unique count of sales territories (SalesTerritoryKey) and products (ProductKey).
A deployment script that can be executed from a command-line utility must be created to deploy the StandardReports project to ServerB.
The tabular model in the AdhocReports project must meet the following requirements:
. ..
A hierarchy must be created that consists of the SalesTerritoryCountry and SalesTerritoryRegion columns from the DimSalesTerritory table and the EmployeeName column from the DimEmployee table. A key performance indicator (KPI) must be created that compares the total quantity sold (OrderQuantity) to a threshold value of 1,000. A measure must be created to calculate day-over-day (DOD) sales by region based on order date.
SSRS on ServerC must be configured to meet the following requirements:
...
It must use a single data source for the standard reports.
It must allow users to create their own standard report subscriptions.
The sales team members must be limited to only viewing and subscribing to
reports in the Sales Reports library.
A week after the reporting solution was deployed to production, Marc, a salesperson, indicated that he has never received reports for which he created an SSRS subscription. In addition, Marc reports that he receives timeout errors when running some reports on demand.
=====
You need to create the KPI in the AdhocReports project.
What should you do?
A. Create a measure by using the SUM([OrderQuantity]) expression. Then use the CREATE KPI CURRENTCUBE statement to define the KPI and target value.
B. Create a measure by using the SUM([OrderQuantity]) expression and create a KPI based on the measure. Then set the target value.
C. Create a measure by using the COUNT([OrderQuantity]) expression and create a KPI based on the measure. Then set the target value.
D. Create a KPI based on the OrderQuantity column and then set the target value.
Answer: C
Q2. - (Topic 4)
You are modifying a SQL Server Analysis Service (SSAS) cube.
The cube consist of a single measure group that contains the following measures:
. Total Quantity On Hand
. Average Quantity On Hand
The measure group has a single partition that uses the MOLAP storage mode.
You need to modify the cube design to ensure that the Total Quantity On Hand measure is updated in real-time and that Average Quantity On Hand measure is updated hourly.
What should you do?
A. Change the storage mode of the partition to use proactive caching with minimum latency.
B. Create an XMLA script that will process the cube and then use SQL Server Agent to execute the script continuously.
C. Create a new measure group for the Average Quantity On Hand measure. Configure the storage mode for the new measure group's partition to ROLAP.
D. Create a new measure group for the Total Quantity On Hand measure. Configure the storage mode for the new measure group's partition to ROLAP.
Answer: D

Q5. HOTSPOT - (Topic 4)
You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) cube that contains the data for a running team.
The data warehouse used by the cube contains the time durations of taps run by each runner on the team. The time durations are stored in seconds as an integer.
You need to build the following two measures in the cube:
. A measure named Measure1 that must contain the average time duration of the laps run by each runner. . A measure named Measure2 that must contain the lap-time duration and the name of the runner who ran the fastest lap.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate Aggregation Function property for each measure in the answer area.

Q7. - (Topic 4)
You are adding dimensions and a new measure group named Accounts Receivable to an existing SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) cube.
Date is one of the existing dimensions in the SSAS database. The underlying fact table for the measure group is associated with multiple dates, including InvoiceDate DueDate and PaymentDate.
You need to ensure that users can slice the Accounts Receivable measures by InvoiceDate, DueDate, and PaymentDate. You also need to ensure that the time required to process the database is minimized.
