Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Create Azure Databricks workspace, then configure cluster auto-scaling settings, then select runtime version, then attach libraries, then set cluster policies.
First create the workspace, then the cluster with auto-scaling settings, choose runtime, attach libraries, and set policies.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create Azure Databricks workspace, then configure cluster auto-scaling settings, then select runtime version, then attach libraries, then set cluster policies.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first have a workspace, then create the cluster with auto-scaling, choose a runtime that supports your libraries, attach libraries, and finally apply policies for governance.
- ✗
Create Azure Databricks workspace, then select runtime version, then configure cluster auto-scaling settings, then attach libraries, then set cluster policies.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you should configure auto-scaling before selecting the runtime, as runtime selection may affect scaling behavior.
- ✗
Configure cluster auto-scaling settings, then create Azure Databricks workspace, then select runtime version, then attach libraries, then set cluster policies.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot configure cluster settings before creating the workspace, as the workspace is the container for all Databricks resources.
- ✗
Create Azure Databricks workspace, then configure cluster auto-scaling settings, then attach libraries, then select runtime version, then set cluster policies.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because libraries should be attached after selecting the runtime version, as the runtime determines library compatibility.
