[All DP-203 Questions]

HOTSPOT -
You have an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 container.
Data is ingested into the container, and then transformed by a data integration application. The data is NOT modified after that. Users can read files in the container but cannot modify the files.
You need to design a data archiving solution that meets the following requirements:
✑ New data is accessed frequently and must be available as quickly as possible.
✑ Data that is older than five years is accessed infrequently but must be available within one second when requested.
✑ Data that is older than seven years is NOT accessed. After seven years, the data must be persisted at the lowest cost possible.
✑ Costs must be minimized while maintaining the required availability.
How should you manage the data? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point

Suggested Answer:
Box 1: Move to cool storage -

Box 2: Move to archive storage -
Archive - Optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and stored for at least 180 days with flexible latency requirements, on the order of hours.
The following table shows a comparison of premium performance block blob storage, and the hot, cool, and archive access tiers.

Right. #1 is Cool because it's clearly mentioned in the documentation that "Older data sets that are not used frequently, but are expected to be available for immediate access" https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/access-tiers-overview#comparing-block-blob-storage-options

Tricky question, it says data that is OLDER THAN (> 5 years), must be available within one second when requested But the first question asks for Five-year-old data, which is =5, so it can also be hot storage Similarly for the seven-year-old. Not sure, please confirm?

"Costs must be minimized while maintaining the required availability." So cold and archive are the correct answers.

If data is frequently being used that is true for till 5 year old data => Hot Older than 5 year upto 10 year rarely used but still needed sometimes on moment notice => Cool Data older than 10 years out of the blue moon used=> Archive

Cool Tier: Cost-effective storage for less frequently accessed data, accessible within seconds when needed. Archive Tier: Lowest-cost storage for rarely accessed data, ideal for long-term preservation without immediate access requirements.

1. Cool --> You will access infrequently but data must be avaliable in few time if you want to access them 2. Archive --> You will never acces them but you need to configure a data archiving solution, so you must retain them always and not delete the blob

5-year old data: Cool Storage Cool Storage: can be retrieved and accessed within seconds/minutes. 7-year old data: Archive Storage Archive Storage: takes hours to retrieve and access the data. Hot Storage: can be retrieved and accessed within a few milliseconds.
