Designing and Implementing a Data Science Solution on Azure — Question 76

You have an Azure Machine Learning workspace. You are connecting an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account to the workspace as a data store.

You need to authorize access from the workspace to the Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account.

What should you use?

Answer options

• A. Service principal
• B. SAS token
• C. Managed identity
• D. Account key

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as a Service principal allows for secure authentication and authorization for Azure resources. The other options, such as SAS token, Managed identity, and Account key, provide alternative access methods but are not as suitable for workspace-to-storage account integrations in Azure Machine Learning scenarios.
