[All Databricks-Certified-Data-Engineer-Associate Questions]

A data engineer has created a new database using the following command:

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS customer360;

In which of the following locations will the customer360 database be located?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

dbfs:/user/hive/warehouse Thereby showing 'dbfs:/user/hive/warehouse/customer360.db

The location of the customer360 database depends on the value of thespark.sql.warehouse.dirconfiguration property, which specifies the default location for managed databases and tables. If the property is not set, the default value isdbfs:/user/hive/warehouse. Therefore, the customer360 database will be located indbfs:/user/hive/warehouse/customer360.db. However, if the property is set to a different value, such asdbfs:/user/hive/database, then the customer360 database will be located indbfs:/user/hive/database/customer360.db. Thus, more information is needed to determine the correct response.

Option A is not correct, asdbfs:/user/hive/database/customer360is not the default location for managed databases and tables, unless thespark.sql.warehouse.dirproperty is explicitly set todbfs:/user/hive/database.

Option B is not correct, asdbfs:/user/hive/warehouseis the default location for the root directory of managed databases and tables, not for a specific database. The database name should be appended with.dbto the directory path, such asdbfs:/user/hive/warehouse/customer360.db.

Option C is not correct, asdbfs:/user/hive/customer360is not a valid location for a managed database, as it does not follow the directory structure specified by thespark.sql.warehouse.dirproperty.

Ha! This question is like a riddle. I'm going to go with option B, just to be different. Who knows, it might work!

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option C. It makes sense to have the database in its own directory, but I could be wrong. This is a tricky one!

I'd go with option D. We need more information about the environment and the configuration to determine the exact location of the database.

Option A seems logical, as that's where the Hive databases are typically stored. But I'm not sure if that's the only possible location.
