DY0-001 Exam Dumps : CompTIA DataX Exam

When running a model on a distributed system, encountering memory constraint errors indicates that the current nodes in the cluster do not have enough memory to handle the model. The most scalable and immediate solution is:

→ Adding Nodes to a Cluster Deployment – This increases the total available memory and compute power. In distributed computing environments like Apache Spark or Hadoop, horizontal scaling via node addition is a standard remedy for resource bottlenecks, including memory limitations.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Containerizing doesn’t inherently solve memory issues unless paired with resource upgrades.

B. Cloud migration may offer more resources, but without scaling configuration, memory limits may persist.

C. Edge deployment is for low-latency, local processing – often with less memory, not more.

→ A CROSS JOIN returns the Cartesian product of the two tables — meaning every row from the first table is paired with every row from the second table. If Table A has m rows and Table B has n rows, a CROSS JOIN will return m × n rows, making it the largest possible result set of all JOIN types.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A & B: RIGHT JOIN and LEFT JOIN return matched records plus unmatched rows from one side — but not all possible combinations.

D: INNER JOIN returns only matched rows between tables, typically producing fewer records than a CROSS JOIN.

→ LASSO (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator) regression performs both variable selection and regularization by adding an L1 penalty to the loss function. It shrinks less important feature coefficients to zero, effectively performing feature selection — perfect for identifying the most influential predictors.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A: OLS uses all predictors and doesn’t perform feature selection.

B: Ridge regression applies an L2 penalty, shrinking coefficients but keeping all predictors.

C: Weighted least squares adjusts for heteroscedasticity but doesn’t reduce variable count.
