Designing and Implementing Cloud-Native Applications Using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB — Question 24

You have an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account that uses the default consistency level.

How can the consistency level be modified as part of a query request?

Answer options

• A. stronger consistency for write operations
• B. weaker consistency for write operations
• C. stronger consistency for read operations
• D. weaker consistency for read operations

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as weaker consistency for read operations allows for faster responses by not requiring the latest write to be visible immediately. Options A and C focus on stronger consistency, which does not align with the ability to modify consistency levels in a query request, while option B is incorrectly related to write operations rather than read operations.
