Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate — Question 141

A data engineer wants to create a data entity from a couple of tables. The data entity must be used by other data engineers in other sessions. It also must be saved to a physical location.
Which of the following data entities should the data engineer create?

Answer options

• A. Database
• B. Function
• C. View
• D. Temporary view
• E. Table

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer is E, Table, as it allows for data to be stored in a physical location and accessed by multiple sessions. A Database could hold multiple tables but does not directly serve the requirement of a single data entity. A Function performs operations but does not store data, while a View and Temporary view do not persist data physically.
