Exam DP-900 topic 1 question 22 discussion

The question says this is an ADL, in which case you would create a container not a file share... you can have folders and files in the container

Azure storage account and container make more sense.

The correct hierarchy for Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 is: ✅ Option 2: Azure Resource Group → Azure Storage Account → Container → Folder → Files

Answer is correct Blob Storage: Azure Resource Group > Storage Account > Container > Blob File Storage: Azure Resource Group > Storage Account > File Share > Folder > File

An Azure Storage account is created within an Azure Resource Group and acts as the top-level entity for managing storage resources. Container, In Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, a container is a logical grouping within a storage account for organizing data, similar to a directory.

Azure Storage Account >> Container

Blob Storage / Container / folders.../ Files

Azure storage account and container are the correct answers.

Azure Storage Account >> Container

The correct sequence for ADLS Gen2: Azure Storage Account >> Container >> Directories >> Files Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 builds on blob storage and optimizes I/O of high-volume data by using a hierarchical namespace that organizes blob data into directories, and stores metadata about each directory and the files within it. This structure allows operations, such as directory renames and deletes, to be performed in a single atomic operation. Flat namespaces, by contrast, require several operations proportionate to the number of objects in the structure. Hierarchical namespaces keep the data organized, which yields better storage and retrieval performance for an analytical use case and lowers the cost of analysis.
