SPLK-1001 Practice Question: Which THREE of the following statements about…
Which THREE of the following statements about data model acceleration are true?
⚠ Common exam trap
Splunk often tests the misconception that acceleration can be scheduled like a report or alert, but in reality it is a continuous background process that only allows configuration of the summary range, not a specific run time.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Accelerated data models consume disk space.
Accelerated data models store pre-computed summary tables on disk, which consume disk space. These summaries are built by the acceleration process and persist until the summary range expires or the data model is re-accelerated.
