Implementing Data Engineering Solutions Using Microsoft Fabric — Question 61

You have a Fabric workspace that contains a lakehouse named Lakehouse1.

In an external data source, you have data files that are 500 GB each. A new file is added every day.

You need to ingest the data into Lakehouse1 without applying any transformations. The solution must meet the following requirements:

• Trigger the process when a new file is added.
• Provide the highest throughput.

Which type of item should you use to ingest the data?

Answer options

• A. Environment
• B. Data pipeline
• C. Eventstream
• D. KQL queryset

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Data pipeline, as it is designed to handle large-scale data ingestion efficiently and can be triggered by new file additions. Options A (Environment) and D (KQL queryset) do not facilitate data ingestion in the manner required, while C (Eventstream) is more suited for real-time data processing rather than batch ingestion.
