Which two actions should you perform for APP1?

You have an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account named account1 that supports an application named App1. App1 uses the consistent prefix consistency level.

You configure account1 to use a dedicated gateway and integrated cache.

You need to ensure that App1 can use the integrated cache.

Which two actions should you perform for APP1? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A . Change the connection mode to direct
B. Change the account endpoint to https://account1.sqlx.cosmos.azure.com.
C. Change the consistency level of requests to strong.
D. Change the consistency level of requests to session.
E. Change the account endpoint to https://account1.documents.azure.com

Answer: B,D

Explanation:

the Azure Cosmos DB integrated cache is an in-memory cache that is built-in to the Azure Cosmos DB dedicated gateway. The dedicated gateway is a front-end compute that stores cached data and routes requests to the backend database. You can choose from a variety of dedicated gateway sizes based on the number of cores and memory needed for your workload1. The integrated cache can reduce the RU consumption and latency of read operations by serving them from the cache instead of the backend containers2.

For your scenario, to ensure that App1 can use the integrated cache, you should perform these two actions:

✑ Change the account endpoint to https://account1.sqlx.cosmos.azure.com. This is the dedicated gateway endpoint that you need to use to connect to your Azure Cosmos DB account and leverage the integrated cache. The standard gateway endpoint (https://account1.documents.azure.com) will not use the integrated cache2.

✑ Change the consistency level of requests to session. This is the highest consistency level that is supported by the integrated cache. If you use a higher consistency level (such as strong or bounded staleness), your requests will bypass the integrated cache and go directly to the backend containers
