Data-Architect Exam Dumps : Salesforce Certified Platform Data Architect (Plat-Arch-201)

The recommended solution for the Cloud Kicks Data Architect to address the requirements is to create a custom object to track shipment requests and a child custom object to track shipment items. Implement an archiving process that moves data off-platform after three years. This solution would allow Cloud Kicks to store and manage their shipment data on Salesforce, and use Salesforce reports to analyze it. However, since Cloud Kicks expects a large volume of data over time, they should implement an archiving process that moves data off-platform after three years to avoid hitting the Org data storage limit and maintain optimal performance3. External objects are not a good option for this scenario, because they are stored off-platform in an external system, such as Heroku’s Postgres database, and they have limited functionality and performance compared to custom objects

To build a custom big object to support storing more than 100 million records in Salesforce, a data architect should use Metadata API or Big Object in setup. Metadata API is an API that allows developers to create, retrieve, update, or delete metadata components in Salesforce programmatically. Big Object in setup is a user interface that allows admins to create big objects declaratively without writing code. Both tools can be used to define custom big objects and their fields, indexes, and relationships in Salesforce. Option A is incorrect because DX (Developer Experience) is a set of tools that allows developers to create and manage applications on Salesforce Platform, but it does not support creating big objects directly. Option D is incorrect because Object Manager in setup is a user interface that allows admins to create and manage standard and custom objects in Salesforce, but it does not support creating big objects declaratively.

According to the exam guide, one of the objectives is to "describe the use cases and considerations for using AppExchange apps and Wave Analytics"1. This implies that options A and B are both valid approaches to provide more analytical insights. Option C is not correct because weekly snapshots are used to track changes over time, not to provide advanced analytics3. Option D is not correct because setup audit trails are used to monitor changes in the setup menu, not to provide analytical insights.
