Microsoft DP-800 Practice Test 22
Question 210
Seabrook University is responsible for an Azure SQL or Microsoft SQL workload. Supplier names have small spelling errors across sources. Operational evidence: Exact equality misses likely matches. What operational condition would provide the earliest useful regression warning?
- Monitor JSON schema changes and portability
- Monitor missed formats and false positives
- Monitor demographic bias and false matches
- Monitor false match decisions
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:
Exact equality misses likely matches. Monitor false match decisions. Fuzzy matching trades recall for false positives. Calibrate an edit-distance threshold on known true/false pairs instead of treating a low distance as identity.
Incorrect Answers
A:
“Monitor JSON schema changes and portability” concerns Text LIKE falsely matches substrings; the reported problem instead is Exact equality misses likely matches. Monitor false match decisions. Fuzzy matching trades recall for false positives. Calibrate an edit-distance threshold on known true/false pairs instead of treating a low distance as identity.
B:
“Monitor missed formats and false positives” concerns Need a controlled transformation without naive substring edits; the reported problem instead is Exact equality misses likely matches. Monitor false match decisions. Fuzzy matching trades recall for false positives. Calibrate an edit-distance threshold on known true/false pairs instead of treating a low distance as identity.
C:
“Monitor demographic bias and false matches” concerns Basic edit count may not rank transpositions optimally; the reported problem instead is Exact equality misses likely matches.

Question 211
At Atlas Publishing, an onboarding workflow compares transposed personal names. The observed constraint is: Basic edit count may not rank transpositions optimally. What initial check best narrows the technical cause without altering business data?
