At ValidExamDumps, we consistently monitor updates to the Databricks-Certified-Professional-Data-Engineer exam questions by Databricks. Whenever our team identifies changes in the exam questions,exam objectives, exam focus areas or in exam requirements, We immediately update our exam questions for both PDF and online practice exams. This commitment ensures our customers always have access to the most current and accurate questions. By preparing with these actual questions, our customers can successfully pass the Databricks Certified Data Engineer Professional exam on their first attempt without needing additional materials or study guides.
Other certification materials providers often include outdated or removed questions by Databricks in their Databricks-Certified-Professional-Data-Engineer exam. These outdated questions lead to customers failing their Databricks Certified Data Engineer Professional exam. In contrast, we ensure our questions bank includes only precise and up-to-date questions, guaranteeing their presence in your actual exam. Our main priority is your success in the Databricks-Certified-Professional-Data-Engineer exam, not profiting from selling obsolete exam questions in PDF or Online Practice Test.
The data architect has decided that once data has been ingested from external sources into the
Databricks Lakehouse, table access controls will be leveraged to manage permissions for all production tables and views.
The following logic was executed to grant privileges for interactive queries on a production database to the core engineering group.
GRANT USAGE ON DATABASE prod TO eng;
GRANT SELECT ON DATABASE prod TO eng;
Assuming these are the only privileges that have been granted to the eng group and that these users are not workspace administrators, which statement describes their privileges?
The GRANT USAGE ON DATABASE prod TO eng command grants the eng group the permission to use the prod database, which means they can list and access the tables and views in the database. The GRANT SELECT ON DATABASE prod TO eng command grants the eng group the permission to select data from the tables and views in the prod database, which means they can query the data using SQL or DataFrame API. However, these commands do not grant the eng group any other permissions, such as creating, modifying, or deleting tables and views, or defining custom functions. Therefore, the eng group members are able to query all tables and views in the prod database, but cannot create or edit anything in the database.Reference:
Incorporating unit tests into a PySpark application requires upfront attention to the design of your jobs, or a potentially significant refactoring of existing code.
Which statement describes a main benefit that offset this additional effort?
A user wants to use DLT expectations to validate that a derived table report contains all records from the source, included in the table validation_copy.
The user attempts and fails to accomplish this by adding an expectation to the report table definition.
Which approach would allow using DLT expectations to validate all expected records are present in this table?
To validate that all records from the source are included in the derived table, creating a view that performs a left outer join between the validation_copy table and the report table is effective. The view can highlight any discrepancies, such as null values in the report table's key columns, indicating missing records. This view can then be referenced in DLT (Delta Live Tables) expectations for the report table to ensure data integrity. This approach allows for a comprehensive comparison between the source and the derived table.

An upstream system has been configured to pass the date for a given batch of data to the Databricks Jobs API as a parameter. The notebook to be scheduled will use this parameter to load data with the following code:
df = spark.read.format("parquet").load(f"/mnt/source/(date)")
Which code block should be used to create the date Python variable used in the above code block?
The code block that should be used to create the date Python variable used in the above code block is:
dbutils.widgets.text(''date'', ''null'') date = dbutils.widgets.get(''date'')
The other options are not correct, because:
Which statement describes Delta Lake optimized writes?
Delta Lake optimized writes involve a shuffle operation before writing out data to the Delta table. The shuffle operation groups data by partition keys, which can lead to a reduction in the number of output files and potentially larger files, instead of multiple smaller files. This approach can significantly reduce the total number of files in the table, improve read performance by reducing the metadata overhead, and optimize the table storage layout, especially for workloads with many small files.
