Box 1: Yes

You can now use a new extension of Azure Stream Analytics SQL to specify the number of partitions of a stream when reshuffling the data.

The outcome is a stream that has the same partition scheme. Please see below for an example:

WITH step1 AS (SELECT * FROM [input1] PARTITION BY DeviceID INTO 10),

step2 AS (SELECT * FROM [input2] PARTITION BY DeviceID INTO 10)

SELECT * INTO [output] FROM step1 PARTITION BY DeviceID UNION step2 PARTITION BY DeviceID

Note: The new extension of Azure Stream Analytics SQL includes a keyword INTO that allows you to specify the number of partitions for a stream when performing reshuffling using a PARTITION BY statement.

Box 2: Yes

When joining two streams of data explicitly repartitioned, these streams must have the same partition key and partition count.

Box 3: Yes

10 partitions x six SUs = 60 SUs is fine.

Note: Remember, Streaming Unit (SU) count, which is the unit of scale for Azure Stream Analytics, must be adjusted so the number of physical resources available to the job can fit the partitioned flow. In general, six SUs is a good number to assign to each partition. In case there are insufficient resources assigned to the job, the system will only apply the repartition if it benefits the job.

Box 1 = timeslice partitioning in the foldersThis means that you should organize your files into folders based on a time attribute, such as year, month, day, or hour. For example, you can have a folder structure like /yyyy/mm/dd/file.csv. This way, you can easily identify and load only the new files that are added each day by using a time filter in your Azure Synapse pipeline12. Timeslice partitioning can also improve the performance of data loading and querying by reducing the number of files that need to be scanned

Box = 2 Apache Parquet This is because Parquet is a columnar file format that can efficiently store and compress data with many columns. Parquet files can also be partitioned by a time attribute, which can improve the performance of incremental loading and querying by reducing the number of files that need to be scanned123. Parquet files are supported by both dedicated SQL pool and serverless SQL pool in Azure Synapse Analytics2.
