You have a SQL database in Microsoft Fabric that contains a column named Payload. Payload stores customer data in JSON documents that have the following format.

Data analysis shows that some customers have subaddressing in their email address, for example, [email protected].
You need to return a normalized email value that removes the subaddressing, for example, user1
[email protected] must be normalized to [email protected].
Which Transact-SQL expression should you use?

You have a Microsoft SQL Server 2025 instance that contains a database named SalesDB.
SalesDB supports a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) pattern for internal support tickets.
The SQL Server instance runs without any outbound network connectivity.
You plan to generate embeddings inside the SQL Server instance and store them in a table for vector similarity queries.
You need to ensure that only a database user account named AIApplicationUser can run embedding generation by using the model.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Which component handles security in Azure SQL?

What is the role of Azure Synapse in AI + SQL solutions?

You have a GitHub Codespaces environment that has GitHub Copilot Chat installed and is connected to a SQL database in Microsoft Fabric named DB1. DB1 contains tables named Sales.Orders and Sales.Customers.
You use GitHub Copilot Chat in the context of DB1.
A company policy prohibits sharing customer Personally Identifiable Information (PII), secrets, and query result sets with any AI service.
You need to use GitHub Copilot Chat to write and review Transact-SQL code for a new stored procedure that will join Sales.Orders to Sales.Customers and return customer names and email addresses. The solution must NOT share the actual data in the tables with GitHub Copilot Chat.
What should you do?

Case Study 2 - Fabrikam
Existing Environment
Azure Environment
Fabrikam has a single Azure subscription in the East US 2 Azure region. The subscription contains an Azure SQL database named DB1. DB1 contains the following tables:
* Patients
* Employees
* Procedures
* Transactions
* UsefulPrompts
* ProcedureDocuments
You store a column master key as a secret in Azure Key Vault.
You have an on-premises application named TransactionProcessing that uses a hard-coded username and password in a connection string to access DB1.
Problem Statements
Users report that after executing a long-running stored procedure named sp_UpdateProcedureForPatient, updates to the underlying data are sometimes inconsistent.
Requirements
Planned Changes
Fabrikam plans to manage all changes to Azure SQL Database objects by using source control in GitHub. Every pull request submitted to production will be validated before it can be merged.
Deployments must use the Release configuration.
Security Requirements
Fabrikam identifies the following security requirements:
* The TransactionProcessing application must use a passwordless connection to DB1.
* The Employees table contains two columns named TaxID and Salary that must be encrypted at rest.
* Auditors must have a tamper-evident history of transactions with cryptographic proof of changes to the employee data.
Database Performance Requirements
Records accessed by using sp_UpdateProcedureForPatient must NOT be changed by other transactions while the stored procedure runs.
AI Search, Embeddings, and Vector Indexing
Fabrikam identifies the following AI-related requirements:
* Queries to the ProcedureDocuments table must use Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF).
* Users must be able to query the data in DB1 by using prompts in Copilot in Microsoft Fabric.
* The UsefulPrompts table will store prompts that doctors can use to help diagnose patient illness by connecting to an Azure OpenAI endpoint.
Development Requirements
Fabrikam identifies the following development requirements:
* Provide the functionality to retrieve all the transactions of a given patient between two dates, showing a running total.
* Expose a Data API builder (DAB) configuration file to enable Azure services to perform the following operations over a REST API:
- Read data from the procedures table without authentication.
- Read and insert data into the Transactions table once authenticated.
- Execute the sp_UpdateProcedurePatient stored procedure.
* Provide the functionality to retrieve a list of the names of patients who underwent medical procedures during the last 30 days.
* Information for each medical procedure will be stored in a table. The table will be used with a large language model (LLM) for user querying and will have the following structure.

DAB
You create a DAB configuration file that meets the development requirements for DB1 and includes the following entities.

Hotspot Question
You need to create a solution that meets the development requirements for retrieving the patient transaction data. The solution must ensure that database developers use the resulting data to join to other tables.
