Exam DBDEA Topics: governance Difficulty: medium

A workspace has years of legacy tables in the workspace-local Hive metastore, still referenced by old jobs using two-part names like legacy_db.orders. The company has now enabled Unity Catalog, and policy requires every production table to fall under its centralized permissions, lineage, and audit. What must happen to legacy_db.orders to meet the policy?

Options (Reading Mode) Click to filter discussion →
  1. A. Nothing is needed: enabling Unity Catalog automatically places existing hive_metastore tables under its governance
  2. B. Run GRANT SELECT through Unity Catalog against the legacy table, which supplies the missing permissions, lineage, and audit trail
  3. C. Mount the table's underlying storage with DBFS so that Unity Catalog can see and govern the data files directly
  4. D. Migrate the table into Unity Catalog and update the old jobs to use its three-level name, so it becomes a UC-governed object
