An analyst runs a notebook against an all-purpose cluster and notices that the first cell, which reads a large Delta table, takes several minutes while subsequent similar queries finish quickly. The analyst wants to understand why this happens and ensure the same quick response on later runs. Which explanation best describes the underlying behavior?

A data analyst has a notebook that reads a Delta table and produces summary statistics. The analyst wants colleagues to see the latest results in a dashboard without rerunning the notebook manually each time. Which Databricks capability should the analyst use to keep the dashboard current?

A data analyst joined a new Databricks workspace and sees a catalog named 'sales_prod' containing schemas 'bronze', 'silver', and 'gold'. The analyst needs to query only the 'gold' schema tables and must not see or query the 'bronze' or 'silver' tables. Which Unity Catalog object should the workspace administrator grant to satisfy this least-privilege requirement?
