DP-420 Exam Dumps : Designing and Implementing Cloud-Native Applications Using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB

Box 1 = Write and replicate data to every region synchronously

This is because the write concern is mapped to the default consistency level configured on your Azure Cosmos DB account 2 , which is strong in this case.  Strong consiste ncy ensures that every write operation is synchronously committed to every region associated with your Azure Cosmos DB account 1 .  The request level consistency level of session only applies to the read operations of App1 1 .

Box 2: That has the lowest estimated latency to the client

This is because the read operations of App1 will use the session consistency level that is specified in the request options. Session consistency is a client-centric consistency model that guarantees monotonic reads, monotonic writes, and read-your-own-writes within a session. A session is scoped to a client connection or a stored procedure execution. Session consistency allows clients to read from any region that has the lowest latency to the client.

Box 1 = Randomized

Box 2 = Deterministic

Always Encrypted for Az ure Cosmos DB supports two types of encryption: deterministic and randomized 1 . Deterministic encryption always produces the same encrypted value for any given plain text value. Randomized encryption produces a different encrypted value for the same plain text value.

For dateOfBirth, randomized encryption is the strongest type of encryption because it provides better protection against statistical analysis and brute-force attacks.  Deterministic encryption would not be suitable for dateOfBirth because it could r eveal patterns or allow equality comparisons 1 .

For healthStatus, deterministic encryption is the strongest type of encryption because it allows queries to perform equality comparisons and filters on the encrypted prop erty.  Randomized encryption would not be suitable for healthStatus because it would prevent any queries on the encrypted property 1 .
