Overview -
Contoso, Ltd. is a company that sells enriched financial data to a variety of external customers.
Contoso has a main office in Los Angeles and two branch offices in New York and Seattle.
Existing Environment -
Data Infrastructure -
Contoso has a 50-TB data warehouse that uses an instance of SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines.
The data warehouse populates an Azure Synapse Analytics workspace that is accessed by the external customers. Currently, the customers can access all the data.
Contoso has one Power BI workspace named FinData that contains a single dataset. The dataset contains financial data from around the world. The workspace is used by 10 internal users and one external customer. The dataset has the following two data sources: the data warehouse and the Synapse Analytics serverless SQL pool.
Users frequently query the Synapse Analytics workspace by using Transact-SQL.
User Problems -
Contoso identifies the following user issues:
Some users indicate that the visuals in Power BI reports are slow to render when making filter selections.
Users indicate that queries against the serverless SQL pool fail occasionally because the size of tempdb has been exceeded.
Users indicate that the data in Power BI reports is stale. You discover that the refresh process of the Power BI model occasionally times out.
Planned Changes -
Contoso plans to implement the following changes:
Into the existing Power BI dataset, integrate an external data source in JSON that is accessible by using the REST API.
Build a new dataset in the FinData workspace by using data from the Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool.
Provide all the customers with their own Power BI workspace to create their own reports. Each workspace will use the new dataset in the FinData workspace.
Implement subscription levels for the customers. Each subscription level will provide access to specific rows of financial data.
Deploy prebuilt datasets to Power BI to simplify the query experience of the customers.
Provide internal users with the ability to incorporate machine learning models loaded to the dedicated SQL pool.
You need to recommend a solution to resolve the query issue of the serverless SQL pool. The solution must minimize impact on the users.

What should you in the recommendation?
- AUpdate the statistics for the serverless SQL pool.
- BMove the data from the serverless SQL pool to a dedicated Apache Spark pool.
- CExecute the sp_set_process_data_limit stored procedure for the serverless SQL pool.
- DMove the data from the serverless SQL pool to a dedicated SQL pool.
Correct Answer:
D
D
GPT-4o - Answer
Moving the data from the serverless SQL pool to a dedicated SQL pool, as suggested in the correct answer D, is an effective strategy to resolve the query issues due to tempdb limits being exceeded. This approach not only enhances performance but also allows for greater scalability and management of resources. It provides a more permanent solution compared to merely updating statistics or setting data limits on individual queries, which might address symptoms but not the underlying scalability and performance issues. This method efficiently minimizes the impact on users by offering a stable and robust environment for handling extensive queries.

Correct Answer:
BD
BD
GPT-4o - Answer
The correct configuration for efficient management and customer satisfaction within the Power BI report system should comprise setting up the FinData workspace to leverage a Power BI Premium capacity. This adaptation is necessary due to identified timing out of data refresh processes under the current setup. Additionally, enabling the "Use datasets across workspaces" function is advised to facilitate simplified access and individualized report creation by different customers utilizing the shared datasets in various workspaces. This ensures both optimal performance and tight control over data access permissions, harmonizing with the evolving needs of the data infrastructure at Contoso.
