Microsoft Azure Data Fundamentals — Question 236

What is a characteristic of a non-relational database?

Answer options

• A. full support for Transact-SQL
• B. a fixed schema
• C. self-describing entities

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as non-relational databases often use self-describing entities that allow for flexible data structures. Options A and B are incorrect because non-relational databases do not fully support Transact-SQL and do not have a fixed schema, which is a characteristic of relational databases.
