Question #: 38
Topic #: 1

You are designing a solution for the ad hoc analysis of data in Azure Databricks notebooks. The data will be stored in Azure Blob storage.
You need to ensure that Blob storage will support the recovery of the data if the data is overwritten accidentally.
What should you recommend?

A. Enable soft delete.
B. Add a resource lock.
C. Enable diagnostics logging.
D. Use read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS).

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
Soft delete protects blob data from being accidentally or erroneously modified or deleted. When soft delete is enabled for a storage account, blobs, blob versions
(preview), and snapshots in that storage account may be recovered after they are deleted, within a retention period that you specify.

A is the correct answer because when you enable blob soft delete for a storage account, you specify a retention period for deleted objects of between 1 and 365 days. The retention period indicates how long the data remains available after it is deleted or overwritten.
