Question 710

A SQL Server 2025 developer enables vector indexes without checking server-level feature availability. What observable outcome proves the recommendation worked?

  1. The benchmark passes agreed thresholds across easy, ambiguous and rare queries.
  2. Index creation succeeds in the intended environment and unsupported targets are held back.
  3. Each normalized sample has approximately unit norm within numerical tolerance.
  4. Retrieval relevance improves and exact identifiers remain available as relational filters.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Vector-search/index general availability differs by SQL platform and update policy; preview controls can be required. The observation “Index creation succeeds in the intended environment and unsupported targets are held back” directly confirms the chosen action worked for this situation: A SQL Server 2025 developer enables vector indexes without checking server-level feature availability.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Question 711

An Azure SQL feature works in the cloud but the same script fails in an on-premises SQL Server 2025 database. Which design choice BEST addresses the root issue?

  1. Benchmark filtered ANN quality and consider exact KNN for highly selective subsets.
  2. Check target platform feature status and enable the required preview configuration only where supported.
  3. Review index version compatibility and migrate/rebuild to the documented current vector index structure.
  4. Implement a supported Change Tracking or CDC-driven refresh and re-embed altered content.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Vector-search/index general availability differs by SQL platform and update policy; preview controls can be required. For the described situation—An Azure SQL feature works in the cloud but the same script fails in an on-premises SQL Server 2025 database—the targeted fix is Check target platform feature status and enable the required preview configuration only where supported.
