You back a document pipeline with the Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL change feed in latest version mode. Deleting an item from the container will not produce a change feed event for that deletion.

AlexFull explanation from Alex

The change feed is a persistent, ordered log of item changes per logical partition, and it is the standard way to keep a downstream index (a vector store, a search index, a cache) in sync with Cosmos DB. Latest version mode gives you only the most recent state of each changed item, with unlimited retention. It intentionally omits deletes, which is exactly the case that silently leaves stale documents in a derived index.

You create an Azure Managed Redis instance with the RediSearch module to store embeddings and run vector similarity queries for a semantic cache. The vector index must stay consistent with the stored hashes. Which eviction policy should you set?

AlexFull explanation from Alex

Azure Managed Redis supports vector similarity search through the RediSearch module, which you enable when you create the cache. Microsoft documents that RediSearch requires the Enterprise clustering policy and the NoEviction eviction policy. Eviction policies decide which keys Redis may remove under memory pressure. The default policy, volatile-lru, makes keys with a TTL eligible for eviction, and the allkeys policies make any key eligible, so none of them meets the RediSearch requirement. Microsoft also advises sizing the cache for both the vector data and the index overhead. Exam tip: RediSearch on Azure Managed Redis pairs with the NoEviction policy and the Enterprise clustering policy.

Frequently asked questions

Your preparation

How much study time should I plan for AI-200?

For planning, Pass-IT estimates roughly 25–70 hours. Relevant experience may put you toward the lower end; starting from scratch may put you toward the higher end. Your needs may fall outside this range. This is not a time requirement from Microsoft or a promise that you will be exam-ready within that time.

What background does AI-200 assume?

Microsoft expects Python proficiency, familiarity with the Azure and third-party SDKs used on the platform, and working knowledge of data management, messaging and eventing, vector databases, container deployment and Azure monitoring. No certification is required to book it. The catalog budget is around 45 hours on top of that background.
