Scenario-based questions
Direct questions
Ordering sequence questions
Code segment questions

There could be about 40-60 questions and the questions are usually distributed according to the weightage given to the topics in the syllabus.

Design and Implement Data Storage (40-45%)
Design and Develop Data Processing (25-30%)
Design and Implement Data Security (10-15%)
Monitor and Optimize Data Storage and Data Processing (10-15%)
