Case Study 3: A. Datum Case A (Question 52 – Question 60)
General Overview
A. Datum Corporation has offices in Miami and Montreal. The network contains a single Active Directory forest named adatum.com. The offices connect to each other by using a WAN link that has a 5-ms latency. A. Datum standardizes its database platform by using SQL Server 2012 Standard edition.
Databases
Each office contains databases named Sales, Inventory, Customers, Products, Personnel, and Dev. Servers and databases are managed by a team of database administrators. Currently, all of the database administrators have the same level of permissions on all of the servers and all of the databases.
The Customers database contains two tables named Customers and Classifications. The following graphic shows the relevant portions of the tables:
The following table shows the current data in the Classifications table:
The Inventory database is used mainly for reports. The database is recreated every day. A full backup of the database currently takes three hours to complete.
Stored Procedures
A stored procedure named sp1 generates millions of rows of data for multiple reports. Sp1 combines data from five different tables from the Sales and Customers databases in a table named Table1.
After Table1 is created, the reporting process reads data from a table in the Products database and searches for information in Table1 based on input from the Products table. After the process is complete, Table1 is deleted.
A stored procedure named sp2 is used to generate a product list. Sp2 takes several minutes to run due to locks on the tables the procedure accesses. A stored procedure named sp3 is used to update prices. Sp3 is composed of several UPDATE statements called in sequence from within a transaction. Currently, if one of the UPDATE statements fails, the stored procedure continues to execute.
A stored procedure named sp4 calls stored procedures in the Sales, Customers, and Inventory databases. The nested stored procedures read tables from the Sales, Customers, and Inventory databases. Sp4 uses an EXECUTE AS clause.
A stored procedure named sp5 changes data in multiple databases. Security checks are performed each time sp5 accesses a database.
You suspect that the security checks are slowing down the performance of sp5. All stored procedures accessed by user applications call nested stored procedures. The nested stored procedures are never called directly.
Design Requirements
Data Recovery
You must be able to recover data from the Inventory database if a storage failure occurs. You have a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of one hour. You must be able to recover data from the Dev database if data is lost accidentally. You have a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of one day.
Classification Changes
You plan to change the way customers are classified. The new classifications will have four levels based on the number of orders. Classifications may be removed or added in the future. Management requests that historical data be maintained for the previous classifications.
Security
A group of junior database administrators must be able to view the server state of the SQL Server instance that hosts the Sales database. The junior database administrators will not have any other administrative rights.

B. Set the IMPLICIT_TRANSACTIONS option to off.
C. Set the IMPLICIT_TRANSACTIONS option to on.
D. Set the XACT_ABORT option to off

Case Study 4: Litware, Inc Case B (Question 61 – Question 67)
Overview
You are a database administrator for a company named Litware, Inc. Litware is a book publishing house.
Litware has a main office and a branch office.
You are designing the database infrastructure to support a new web-based application that is being developed. The web application will be accessed at www.litwareinc.com. Both internal employees and external partners will use the application. You have an existing desktop application that uses a SQL Server 2005 database named App1_DB. App1_Db will remain in production.
Requirements
Planned Changes
You plan to deploy a SQL Server 2012 instance that will contain two databases named Databasel and Database2.
Database1 will contain two tables named Orders and OrderDetails. Databasel will also contain a stored procedure named usp_UpdateOrderDetails. The stored procedure is used to update order information. The stored procedure queries the Orders table twice each time the procedure executes. Each query against the Orders table must return the same data. All statements in the stored procedure run in a single transaction. Database1 will contain several queries that access data in the Database2 tables. Database2 will contain a table named Inventory. Inventory will contain over 100 GB of data. The Inventory table will have two indexes: a clustered index on the primary key and a nonclustered index. The column that is used as the primary key will use the identity property. Database2 will contain a table named Inventory. Inventory will contain over 100 GB of data. The Inventory table will have two indexes: a clustered index on the primary key and a nonclustered index. The column that is used as the primary key will use the identity property. Database2 will contain a stored procedure named usp_UpdateInventory. Usp_UpdateInventory will manipulate several small data sets of up to 100 rows each. Each data set will be used multiple times.
Data from Database2 will be accessed periodically by an external application named Application!. The data from Database2 will be sent to a database named App1_Db1 as soon as changes occur to the data in Database2.
Litware plans to use offsite storage for all SQL Server 2012 backups.
Business Requirements
You have the following requirements:
– Costs for new equipment must be minimized.
– External access to the databases must be encrypted.
– Development effort must be minimized whenever possible.
– System administrators must be notified when disk space falls below a certain threshold.
– The databases must be available if the SQL Server service or the storage solution fails.
– Database administrators must receive a detailed report that contains allocation errors and data corruption.
– Application developers must be denied direct access to the database tables.
– Applications must be denied direct access to the tables.
You must encrypt the backup files to meet regulatory compliance requirements.
The encryption strategy must minimize changes to the databases and to the applications.
