Designing an Azure Data Solution (legacy) — Question 25

You have a large amount of sensor data stored in an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 account. The files are in the Parquet file format.
New sensor data will be published to Azure Event Hubs.
You need to recommend a solution to add the new sensor data to the existing sensor data in real-time. The solution must support the interactive querying of the entire dataset.
Which type of server should you include in the recommendation?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Azure Stream Analytics is ideal for real-time data processing and can easily integrate with Azure Event Hubs, making it suitable for your requirements. Azure SQL Database and Azure Cosmos DB are not specifically designed for real-time data ingestion from event streams, while Azure Databricks, although powerful for analytics, may not be as efficient for real-time data streaming compared to Azure Stream Analytics.
