Question 160

A database query has a foldable selection of only required rows and columns. Where should filtering occur?

  1. Preserve semantic differences between missing and genuine zero values.
  2. Fold source-side filters and projections before expensive non-foldable steps.
  3. Keep the detailed fact and create a separate aggregate table as needed.
  4. Consume the governed transformed dataflow output where appropriate.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Fold source-side filters and projections before expensive non-foldable steps. Delegating selective operations reduces refresh data transfer and processing.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Preserve semantic differences between missing and genuine zero values. It serves “but a custom transformation converts both to zero”, not “required rows and columns. Where should filtering occur”.

C:

Supplementary aggregates should not erase detail required by other analyses. That matters for “grain and an additional aggregate summary for performance” rather than the condition “required rows and columns. Where should filtering occur”.

D:

Consume the governed transformed dataflow output where appropriate. The boundary it addresses is “A dataflow already standardizes CustomerIDs for several reports”, while this case concerns “required rows and columns. Where should filtering occur”.

Question 161

A service department needs ticket-level analysis but a query groups all records by month during ingestion. What is the risk?

  1. Retain Product, Date and Warehouse keys for location-specific balances.
  2. Avoid using refresh-dependent row indexes as durable business identifiers.
  3. Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact.
  4. Keep ticket-grain rows until detailed analysis needs are satisfied.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Keep ticket-grain rows until detailed analysis needs are satisfied. Premature aggregation discards identifiers required for drillthrough and detail counts.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Dropping Warehouse would combine distinct stock positions and misstate location metrics. The boundary it addresses is “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations”, while this case concerns “query groups all records by month during ingestion”.

B:

Row-order changes can recreate different generated indexes and break external correspondence. This solves “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”; the stated issue is “query groups all records by month during ingestion”.

C:

Preserving components supports different net and gross calculations without repeated parsing. The deciding difference is “base amounts and finance needs both for measures” versus “query groups all records by month during ingestion”.

Question 162

A report compares product-day inventory balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations. What is the correct fact grain?

  1. Keep AccountKey and SnapshotDate at the snapshot fact grain.
  2. Avoid using refresh-dependent row indexes as durable business identifiers.
  3. Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact.
  4. Retain Product, Date and Warehouse keys for location-specific balances.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Retain Product, Date and Warehouse keys for location-specific balances. Dropping Warehouse would combine distinct stock positions and misstate location metrics.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Snapshot observations are identified by account and snapshot date, not only by month names. Its application is “account and must be linked to calendar time”, not the need “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations”.

B:

Row-order changes can recreate different generated indexes and break external correspondence. That is a different operating condition from “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations”: “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”.

C:

Preserving components supports different net and gross calculations without repeated parsing. It serves “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”, not “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations”.

Question 163

A billing extract includes separate tax and base amounts and finance needs both for measures. What should the fact hold?

  1. Retain Product, Date and Warehouse keys for location-specific balances.
  2. Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact.
  3. Keep AccountKey and SnapshotDate at the snapshot fact grain.
  4. Avoid using refresh-dependent row indexes as durable business identifiers.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact. Preserving components supports different net and gross calculations without repeated parsing.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Dropping Warehouse would combine distinct stock positions and misstate location metrics. The present requirement is “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”; “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations” is a distinct situation.

C:

Snapshot observations are identified by account and snapshot date, not only by month names. The boundary it addresses is “account and must be linked to calendar time”, while this case concerns “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”.

D:

Row-order changes can recreate different generated indexes and break external correspondence. This solves “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”; the stated issue is “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”.

Question 164

A snapshot table stores one month-end balance per account and must be linked to calendar time. What key design helps?

  1. Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact.
  2. Keep AccountKey and SnapshotDate at the snapshot fact grain.
  3. Keep ticket-grain rows until detailed analysis needs are satisfied.
  4. Retain Product, Date and Warehouse keys for location-specific balances.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Keep AccountKey and SnapshotDate at the snapshot fact grain. Snapshot observations are identified by account and snapshot date, not only by month names.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Preserving components supports different net and gross calculations without repeated parsing. This solves “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”; the stated issue is “account and must be linked to calendar time”.

C:

Premature aggregation discards identifiers required for drillthrough and detail counts. Its application is “query groups all records by month during ingestion”, not the need “account and must be linked to calendar time”.

D:

Dropping Warehouse would combine distinct stock positions and misstate location metrics. That is a different operating condition from “account and must be linked to calendar time”: “balances but the source includes multiple warehouse locations”.

Question 165

A transformed fact table gains a new sequential index each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs. What principle applies?

  1. Keep the separate additive monetary components in the transaction fact.
  2. Keep AccountKey and SnapshotDate at the snapshot fact grain.
  3. Keep ticket-grain rows until detailed analysis needs are satisfied.
  4. Avoid using refresh-dependent row indexes as durable business identifiers.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Avoid using refresh-dependent row indexes as durable business identifiers. Row-order changes can recreate different generated indexes and break external correspondence.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Preserving components supports different net and gross calculations without repeated parsing. That is a different operating condition from “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”: “base amounts and finance needs both for measures”.

B:

Snapshot observations are identified by account and snapshot date, not only by month names. It serves “account and must be linked to calendar time”, not “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”.

C:

Premature aggregation discards identifiers required for drillthrough and detail counts. The present requirement is “each refresh, but other systems expect stable IDs”; “query groups all records by month during ingestion” is a distinct situation.

Question 166

A model holds millions of order amounts and must slice them by Product and Customer. What arrangement is recommended?

  1. Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension.
  2. Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain.
  3. Model Sales as a fact table related to separate Product and Customer dimensions.
  4. Filter fact data through the respective conformed dimensions rather than linking unrelated dimensions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Model Sales as a fact table related to separate Product and Customer dimensions. A star schema separates measured events from descriptive lookup entities.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Keeping high-cardinality text out of facts improves compression and clarity. That matters for “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record” rather than the condition “and must slice them by Product and Customer”.

B:

Transaction facts store measurable events and foreign keys. The boundary it addresses is “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”, while this case concerns “and must slice them by Product and Customer”.

D:

Dimensions usually meet through common facts, avoiding ambiguous dimension-to-dimension filtering. The deciding difference is “though the two are linked by Sales events” versus “and must slice them by Product and Customer”.

Question 167

A Product lookup includes Brand, Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures. What kind of table is it?

  1. Filter fact data through the respective conformed dimensions rather than linking unrelated dimensions.
  2. Treat the Product table as a descriptive dimension.
  3. Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain.
  4. Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Treat the Product table as a descriptive dimension. Dimension attributes are used for grouping and filtering fact measures.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Dimensions usually meet through common facts, avoiding ambiguous dimension-to-dimension filtering. The deciding difference is “though the two are linked by Sales events” versus “Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures”.

C:

Transaction facts store measurable events and foreign keys. That is a different operating condition from “Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures”: “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”.

D:

Keeping high-cardinality text out of facts improves compression and clarity. It serves “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record”, not “Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures”.

Question 168

An OrderLines table has one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount. What table role fits?

  1. Model Sales as a fact table related to separate Product and Customer dimensions.
  2. Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain.
  3. Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension.
  4. Filter fact data through the respective conformed dimensions rather than linking unrelated dimensions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain. Transaction facts store measurable events and foreign keys.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A star schema separates measured events from descriptive lookup entities. It serves “and must slice them by Product and Customer”, not “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”.

C:

Keeping high-cardinality text out of facts improves compression and clarity. That matters for “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record” rather than the condition “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”.

D:

Dimensions usually meet through common facts, avoiding ambiguous dimension-to-dimension filtering. The boundary it addresses is “though the two are linked by Sales events”, while this case concerns “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”.

Question 169

A model repeats long Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record. Which redesign helps?

  1. Treat the Product table as a descriptive dimension.
  2. Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain.
  3. Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension.
  4. Model Sales as a fact table related to separate Product and Customer dimensions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension. Keeping high-cardinality text out of facts improves compression and clarity.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Dimension attributes are used for grouping and filtering fact measures. The boundary it addresses is “Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures”, while this case concerns “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record”.

B:

Transaction facts store measurable events and foreign keys. This solves “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”; the stated issue is “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record”.

D:

A star schema separates measured events from descriptive lookup entities. Its application is “and must slice them by Product and Customer”, not the need “Product descriptions on each 100-million-row Sales fact record”.

Question 170

A team creates a direct Customer-to-Product relationship even though the two are linked by Sales events. What is safer?

  1. Treat the Product table as a descriptive dimension.
  2. Treat OrderLines as a transactional fact table at order-line grain.
  3. Move descriptive Product columns into the related dimension.
  4. Filter fact data through the respective conformed dimensions rather than linking unrelated dimensions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Filter fact data through the respective conformed dimensions rather than linking unrelated dimensions. Dimensions usually meet through common facts, avoiding ambiguous dimension-to-dimension filtering.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Dimension attributes are used for grouping and filtering fact measures. Its application is “Category and Subcategory names but no additive measures”, not the need “though the two are linked by Sales events”.

B:

Transaction facts store measurable events and foreign keys. That is a different operating condition from “though the two are linked by Sales events”: “one row per purchased item, Quantity and NetAmount”.

C:
