Correct Answer: A

The Databricks ABS-AQS connector uses Azure Queue Storage (AQS) to provide an optimized file source that lets you find new files written to an Azure Blob storage (ABS) container without repeatedly listing all of the files.

This provides two major advantages:

Lower latency: no need to list nested directory structures on ABS, which is slow and resource intensive.

Lower costs: no more costly LIST API requests made to ABS.

In Azure DevOps, open the project that's configured with your data factory.

On the left side of the page, select Pipelines, and then select Releases.

Select New pipeline, or, if you have existing pipelines, select New and then New release pipeline.

In the Stage name box, enter the name of your environment.

Select Add artifact, and then select the git repository configured with your development data factory. Select the publish branch of the repository for the Default branch. By default, this publish branch is adf_publish.
