Views in the Lakehouse maintain a valid cache of the most recent versions of source tables at all times.
B.
Delta Lake automatically collects statistics on the first 32 columns of each table, which are leveraged in data skipping based on query filters.
C.
Z-ORDER can only be applied to numeric values stored in Delta Lake tables.
D.
Primary and foreign key constraints can be leveraged to ensure duplicate values are never entered into a dimension table.
The Answer Is:
B
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
Delta Lake automatically collects statistics on the first 32 columns of each table. These statistics help optimize query performance through data skipping , which allows Databricks to scan only relevant parts of a table.
This feature significantly improves query efficiency, especially when dealing with large datasets.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
Option A: Views do not cache the most recent versions of the source table; they are recomputed when queried.
Option C: Z-ORDER can be applied to any data type, including strings, to optimize read performance.
Option D: Delta Lake does not enforce primary or foreign key constraints.
