Hello everyone,
I hope you are doing well. I am currently preparing for an upcoming interview that focuses on Azure Data Factory. While searching for resources and interview preparation material, I came across an article that provides a
comprehensive list of Azure Data Factory interview questions.
As I went through the questions, I encountered a specific problem related to data ingestion from an Azure SQL database to an Azure Data Lake Store. The question asks for an efficient way to copy a large amount of data from Azure SQL to Azure Data Lake Store using Azure Data Factory. I have been struggling to find the best approach for this scenario.
I have tried exploring the Azure Data Factory documentation and various online resources, but I haven't found a definitive solution yet. I understand that there are different activities available in Azure Data Factory such as Copy Activity, Data Flow, and Mapping Data Flow, but I am unsure which one would be the most suitable for this particular case.
If anyone has experience working with Azure Data Factory or has encountered a similar situation, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. If possible, could you please provide a code snippet or a step-by-step solution to achieve efficient data ingestion from Azure SQL to Azure Data Lake Store using Azure Data Factory?
Thank you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to your responses and suggestions.
