Microsoft Exam DP-420 Topic 1 Question 42 Discussion

Actual exam question for Microsoft's DP-420 exam

Question #: 42
Topic #: 1

You have a container m an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account. The container stores data about families. Data about parents, children, and pets are stored as separate documents.

Each document contains the address of each family. Members of the same family share the same partition key named family Id

You need to update the address for each member of the same family that share the same address. The solution must meet the following requirements:

* Be atomic consistent isolated, and durable (ACID).

* Provide the lowest latency.

What should you do?

AUpdate the document of each family member by using a transactional batch operation.

BUpdate the document of each family member separately by using a patch operation.

CUpdate the document of each family member separately and set the consistency level to strong.

I love how they sneak in that 'lowest latency' requirement. Very sneaky, Azure Cosmos DB. Option A gets my vote.

Option C seems like overkill. Strong consistency is great, but do we really need it for a simple address update? A is the clear winner here.

B) Definitely, it's the most efficient way to update the address for each family member.

That's a good point, Elizabeth. However, using a transactional batch operation would provide the lowest latency as well.

But wouldn't updating the document of each family member separately with strong consistency also meet the requirements?

I was leaning towards option B, but the requirement for low latency makes me think A might be the better choice. Batched operations should be faster.

Hmm, I think option A is the way to go. Updating all family members in a single transaction seems like the best way to ensure ACID compliance.
