Question 430
A SQL AI integration needs a managed definition for an approved text embedding endpoint. What is the MOST appropriate immediate corrective approach?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Create an external model object with supported endpoint, model identifiers and secure credential strategy. This targets the primary issue because a database model definition binds SQL AI operations to a specific external provider configuration. Verification: An authorized test generates an embedding with the expected size. Prevent recurrence: Version endpoint changes and restrict model creation rights.
Incorrect Answers
Model invocation can export inputs and incur charges, so object privileges matter.
Embedding inputs can expose or encode sensitive data without adding retrieval value.
Text-only models cannot directly interpret image content without a supporting vision pipeline.
