There is high contention between readers and writers on several tables used by your transaction. You need to minimize the use of the tempdb space. You also need to prevent reading queries from blocking writing queries. Which isolation level should you use? A. SERIALIZABLE B. SNAPSHOT C. READ COMMITTED SNAPSHOT D. REPEATABLE READ Answer: C Explanation:
- “There is high contention between readers and writers” SNAPSHOT and RED COMMITTED SNAPSHOT will not apply share locks so minimize the contention. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173763.aspx
- “need to minimize the use of the tempdb space” RED COMMITTED SNAPSHOT uses less tempdb space. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378149(v=sql.110).aspx So the answer is RED COMMITTED SNAPSHOT QUESTION 68 You create a table that has the StudentCode, SubjectCode, and Marks columns to record mid-year

70 - 461 Exam Dumps 70 - 461 Exam Questions 70 - 461 PDF Dumps 70 - 461 VCE Dumps Answer: D Explanation: Two answers will return the correct results: the "WHERE CONVERT..." and "WHERE ... AND ... " answers. The correct answer for Microsoft would be the answer that is most "efficient". Anybody have a clue as to which is most efficient? In the execution plan, the one that I've selected as the correct answer is the query with the shortest duration. Also, the query answer with "WHERE CONVERT..." threw warnings in the execution plan... something about affecting CardinalityEstimate and SeekPlan. I also found this article, which leads me to believe that I have the correct answer. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181034.aspx QUESTION 85 Your application contains a stored procedure for each country.
