AI-200 Practice Exam Questions

Verified Answer: Identify document changes: Change feed processor. Scale out vectorization processing: Lease container.

Detailed Explanation: The change feed processor is designed to react to inserts and updates in a monitored Cosmos DB container, which directly matches the requirement to generate embeddings for new or changed documents. Its lease container stores processing state and coordinates work across multiple workers, allowing the processing workload to scale out without duplicating ownership of change-feed ranges. A periodic full scan would consume unnecessary RUs, and neither strong consistency nor container RU throughput is the coordination mechanism for distributed change-feed workers.

Trigger for container images build: Base image update

Implementation of image builds: ACR Task

The correct trigger is Base image update because Proseware requires every custom container image to be rebuilt automatically whenever its Docker Hub base image changes. Azure Container Registry Tasks can detect base-image dependencies from the Dockerfile FROM instruction and automatically trigger a rebuild when that base image is updated. Microsoft confirms that ACR Tasks can track base images in public repositories such as Docker Hub and Microsoft Container Registry, as well as images stored in Azure Container Registry.

The build implementation must be an ACR Task . This directly satisfies the technical requirement that image-build automation run inside Azure Container Registry , eliminating dependencies on local developer machines or separate external build services. ACR Tasks provides cloud-based container building and can automate builds based on source-code commits, base-image updates, or scheduled triggers.

A GitHub workflow could orchestrate CI/CD, but using it as the actual image-building implementation would conflict with the explicit requirement that builds execute inside ACR. Docker Compose defines multi-container applications; it is not the native ACR build automation mechanism. A Commit trigger addresses source changes rather than the stated base-image update requirement, while Scheduled builds would introduce unnecessary periodic execution.

Detailed Explanation: The objective is to reduce RU consumption from vector similarity queries. Microsoft guidance identifies vector numeric precision and vector-index selection as major cost and performance levers. Using a lower supported vector precision can reduce storage and processing cost, while quantizedFlat and DiskANN are designed to reduce latency and RU consumption compared with flat search for appropriate data sizes. Strong consistency would increase resource cost rather than solve vector-search efficiency. A regular composite index is not a substitute for the vector index. Option B should be read as reducing vector numeric precision, not changing a generic “indexing precision” setting.
