Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Converting all batch segments into streaming segments regardless of criteria complexity.
Why it's wrong here
Complex multi-object historical segments cannot run as streaming segments.
- ✗
Disabling Identity Resolution rule sets permanently across all data spaces.
Why it's wrong here
Disabling identity resolution breaks unified profiles and is not a valid performance optimization.
- ✓
Optimizing Data Model Object cardinality and removing redundant or unused relationships.
Why this is correct
Clean data models with correct cardinality reduce join complexity during segmentation.
- ✓
Reviewing and simplifying segment container logic to reduce excessive nesting and broad OR conditions.
Why this is correct
Simpler container hierarchies execute significantly faster.
- ✓
Pre-aggregating heavy metrics into Calculated Insights rather than performing complex nested calculations inside segments.
Why this is correct
Pre-computing metrics reduces real-time query load during batch segment execution.
