AI-200 Data Management Services And Vector Search Practice Question
You are configuring data ingestion into an Azure AI Search index using an Azure AI Search indexer. The source data resides in Azure Blob Storage and consists of PDF documents. You want to chunk the documents and generate embeddings during ingestion without writing custom orchestration code. Which feature should you configure?
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
✓
Integrated vectorization with built-in document splitting and vectorizer skillset configuration
Azure AI Search supports built-in chunking and vectorization capabilities within skillsets or integrated vectorization to parse, chunk, and embed documents automatically via indexers.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Azure Data Factory mapping data flows with vector transformations
Why it's wrong here
While ADF can process data, integrated vectorization is the native Azure AI Search feature for this task.
- ✗
A custom WebJob running LangChain
Why it's wrong here
A custom WebJob requires external custom code orchestration, whereas integrated vectorization is managed natively.
- ✗
Cosmos DB change feed triggers
Why it's wrong here
The source is Azure Blob Storage, not Cosmos DB, and change feed does not provide built-in PDF chunking.
- ✓
Integrated vectorization with built-in document splitting and vectorizer skillset configuration
Why this is correct
Integrated vectorization allows indexers to handle chunking and embedding generation natively.
Quick reference
Azure Blob Storage Tier Comparison
| Tier | Storage Cost | Retrieval Cost | Latency | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hot | Highest | Lowest | Immediate | Active data, frequent reads |
| Cool | Lower | Higher | Immediate | Data accessed < once / month |
| Cold | Lower still | Higher | Immediate | Data accessed < once / quarter |
| Archive | Lowest | Highest + rehydration delay | Hours | Long-term compliance retention |
