You are designing an application that will use Windows Azure Table storage to store millions of data points
each day.
The application must retain each day’s data for only one week. You need to recommend an approach for
minimizing storage transactions.
What should you recommend?
A.
Use a separate table for each date. Delete each table when it is one week old.
B.
Use a separate table for each week. Delete each table when it is one week old.
C.
Use a single table, partitioned by date. Use Entity Group Transactions to delete data when it is one week
old.
D.
Use a single table, partitioned by week. Use Entity Group Transactions to delete data when it is one week
old.
Using a separate table for each date is unnecessary. Answer should be C.

Agreed… plus you can use the delete entity, and make it all automatic… using a separate table each week seems tedious
Again, this question fits in which exam objective? Probably not 70-533
Answer is A.

The transaction can include at most 100 entities, and its total payload may be no more than 4 MB in size.
In the question there are millions of entities…
I Agree. A should be the one.
