• Question 4:

  Your developers have created table to store some of their program's data. After examining the slow Query Log, you see that they are using the LIKE operator and SUBSTER () functions against a VARCHAR (10000) column quite often.

  An example of the start of one row of data: `GREEN01020495888331993-12-10/2...'

  What should you do to improve the overall performance?

  A. Convert the column to TEXT and add a fulltext index to the table.

  B. Create multiple prefix indexes of differing lengths.

  C. Convert their column to BINARY.

  D. Redesign the table so that the most commonly searched for string patterns are in their own columns.

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 5:

  An employee cannot access the company database. You check the connection variables: Mysql> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE `%connect%';

  

  8 rows in set (0.00 sec)

  A look at the user privileges shows:

  GRANT... TO `bob'@'%, example.com' WITH MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 0; GRANT... TO `key'@'%, example.com' WITH MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 1; GRANT... TO `joe'@'%, example.com' WITH MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 50;

  What is a valid explanation for why one of the users is unable to connect to the database?

  A. Bob has max_user_connections set to zero, which blocks all his connections

  B. Joe has exceeded the max_user_connections global limit.

  C. All users are blocked because max_user_connections is accumulated over the host account information.

  D. Kay is already connected elsewhere and attempting to log in again.

  E. Connect_timeout is too small to allow a connection to occur.

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 6:

  Consider the following: Mysql> EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM City WHERE Name = `Jacksonville' AND CountryCode = `USA' \G ******************************** 1. row ******************************** Id: 1 Select_type: SIMPLE Table: City Type: ref Possible_keys: name_country_index Key: name_country_index Ref: const, const Rows: 1 Extra: Using where

  B. Thread buffers are allocated when a client connects, and are freed when the client disconnects.

  D. User buffers are allocated at server startup and freed when the user is dropped.

  E. All dynamic buffers that are set with a SET GLOBAL statement immediately get allocated globally, and are never freed.

  Correct Answer: ABC

• Question 8:

  Which three tasks can be performed by using the performance Schema?

  A. Finding queries that are not using indexes

  B. Finding rows that are locked by InnoDB

  C. Finding client connection attributes

  D. Finding the part of a code in which a single query is spending time

  E. Finding the size of each table

  Correct Answer: ABC
