Q3. You discover that usp.SelectSpeakersByName executes slowly if usp_UpdateSpeakerName executes simultaneously.
You need to minimize the execution time of usp.SelectSpeakersByName. The solution must not affect the performance of the other stored procedures.
What should you update?
A. Usp_UpdateSpeakerName to use the NOLOCK query hint
B. Usp_UpdateSpeakerName to use snapshot isolation
C. Usp_SelectSpeakersByName to use the NOLOCK query hint
D. Usp_SelectSpeakersByName to use snapshot isolation
Answer: C
Explanation: NOLOCK
Is equivalent to READUNCOMMITTED.
READUNCOMMITTED
Specifies that dirty reads are allowed.

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE
B. Replace line 46 with the following code:
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL REPEATABLE READ
C. Move the SELECT statement at line 49 to line 57.
D. Move the SET statement at line 46 to line 53.
Answer: A
Topic 3, Scenario 3
Application Information
You have two servers named SQL1 and SQL2. SQL1 has SQL Server 2012 Enterprise installed. SQL2 has SQL Server 2008 Standard installed.
You have an application that is used to manage employees and office space. Users report that the application has many errors and is very slow.
You are updating the application to resolve the issues. You plan to create a new database on SQL1 to support the application. The script that you plan to use to create the tables for the new database is shown in Tables.sql. The script that you plan to use to create the stored procedures for the new database is shown in StoredProcedures.sql. The script that you plan to use to create the indexes for the new database is shown in Indexes.sql. A database named DB2 resides on SQL2. DB2 has a table named EmployeeAudit that will audit changes to a table named Employees.
A stored procedure named usp_UpdateEmployeeName will be executed only by other stored procedures. The stored procedures executing usp_UpdateEmp!oyeeName will always handle transactions.
A stored procedure named usp_SelectEmployeesByName will be used to retrieve the names of employees. Usp_SelectEmployeesByName can read uncommitted data.
A stored procedure named usp_GetFutureOfficeAssignments will be used to retrieve office assignments that will occur in the future.

Q8. You have a Microsoft SQL Azure database that contains a table named Customers.
You have a table-valued function named TopCustomers that returns a list of all the customers that have purchased items during the last 12 months. The ID of the customer is passed as an argument to the TopCustomers function.
You need to create a query that returns a list of all the Customer names and the purchase dates.
The solution must return only customers that have purchased an item during the last 12 months.
What should you add to the query?
A. OUTER JOIN
B. CROSS JOIN
C. CROSS APPLY
D. OUTER APPLY

Q10. You need to implement a change to usp_ExportOpenings that meets the integration requirements.
What should you modify in usp_ExportOpenings? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose all that apply?)
A. To the end of line 04, add [Opening].
B. To the end of line 05, add [Opening! title].
C. To line 10, add FOR XML RAW.
D. To line 10, add FOR XMLEXPLICIT.
E. To line 10, add FOR XML AUTO.
F. To the end of line 04, add [Opening!ELEMENT].
G. To the end of line 06, add [Opening!salary!ELEMENT].
H. To the end of line 05, add [Opening!title!ELEMENT].
I. To the end of line 06, add [Opening! salary].
Answer: A,B,E,I
Explanation:
The AUTO mode generates nesting in the resulting XML by using heuristics based on the way the SELECT statement is specified. You have minimal control over the shape of the XML generated. The nested FOR XML queries can be written to generate XML hierarchy beyond the XML shape that is generated by AUTO mode heuristics.
