AI-200 Data Management Services And Vector Search Practice Question
You are designing a multi-tenant enterprise RAG system using Azure AI Search. Each tenant requires isolated document retrieval. Which feature should you implement to enforce data security while leveraging vector search?
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
✓
Security trimming using OData filter expressions with vector queries
Security trimming in Azure AI Search allows filtering search results based on user permissions by applying document-level access control lists (ACLs) using OData filters during the search query execution.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) at the index level
Why it's wrong here
Index-level RBAC restricts who can query the entire index, but does not provide multi-tenant document-level isolation within a single index.
- ✗
Dedicated search services per tenant without filters
Why it's wrong here
While provisionally isolated, deploying a dedicated search service per tenant is cost-prohibitive and inefficient compared to shared multi-tenant filtering.
- ✓
Security trimming using OData filter expressions with vector queries
Why this is correct
Security trimming using OData filters ensures that vector and hybrid search queries only return documents the user is authorized to access.
- ✗
Semantic ranker query throttling
Why it's wrong here
Semantic ranker is used for re-ranking search results based on deep learning, not for security filtering.
