Actual exam question for Databricks's Databricks Certified Data Analyst Associate exam
Question #: 25
Topic #: 3
[All Databricks Certified Data Analyst Associate Questions]

A business analyst has been asked to create a data entity/object called sales_by_employee. It should always stay up-to-date when new data are added to the sales table. The new entity should have the columns sales_person, which will be the name of the employee from the employees table, and sales, which will be all sales for that particular sales person. Both the sales table and the employees table have an employee_id column that is used to identify the sales person.

Which of the following code blocks will accomplish this task?

A)

B)

C)

D)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The SQL code provided in Option D is the correct way to create a view namedsales_by_employeethat will always stay up-to-date with the sales and employees tables. The code uses theCREATE OR REPLACE VIEWstatement to define a new view that joins the sales and employees tables on the employee_id column. It selects the employee_name as sales_person and all sales for each employee, ensuring that the data entity/object is always up-to-date when new data are added to these tables.

I recall that we should use a GROUP BY clause for summarizing sales by employee, but I can't remember if that was in option C or D.

I think I might be overthinking this. If the entity needs to stay up-to-date, wouldn't it require some kind of trigger or scheduled job?

This question feels similar to the practice ones where we had to aggregate sales data. I think it might be option B, but I need to double-check the syntax.

I remember we discussed how to join tables using employee_id, but I'm not sure which code block actually updates the entity automatically.

This seems pretty straightforward to me. I'd just use a simple GROUP BY query to aggregate the sales data by employee, and then join that back to the employees table to get the sales_person column. I'm leaning towards option B.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. The key is to join the sales and employees tables on the employee_id column, and then aggregate the sales data by the sales_person column. I'd probably go with option C, as it looks the most straightforward.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording here. Do we need to create a new table, or just a view? And how exactly should we link the sales and employees tables? I'll need to think through the logic carefully.

This looks like a pretty straightforward data transformation task. I'd start by carefully reading through the requirements to make sure I understand exactly what the new entity needs to contain and how it should be updated.

Hmm, Option B it is. Although, I'm a little worried about that 'always stay up-to-date' part. Sounds like a lot of work!

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe we should ask the instructor if they accept 'All of the above' as a valid answer. You know, just to cover our bases.
