This practice set covers Delta Live Tables (DLT), a critical component of the Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate exam. Each question tests your understanding of DLT's declarative ETL framework, data quality constraints, and pipeline execution modes.
Test your knowledge of Delta Live Tables concepts:
- DLT fundamentals, including declarative ETL framework and pipeline orchestration
- Live table creation using CREATE LIVE TABLE and CREATE STREAMING LIVE TABLE syntax
- Execution modes covering Triggered vs Continuous pipelines and Development vs Production modes
- Data quality constraints with EXPECT clauses and violation handling (drop row, fail update)
- DLT dataset referencing using LIVE. keyword and STREAM() function
- Pipeline configuration including cluster management and job integration
- DLT advantages over traditional ETL approaches for data quality and dependency management
What makes this different:
- Real-world scenarios demonstrating DLT syntax and configuration
- Detailed explanations of execution modes and their impact on resource management
- Clear examples of data quality constraint behaviors
Use this practice set to validate your Delta Live Tables knowledge before exam day.
