Qlik QREP Exam - Topic 2 Question 3 Discussion

Actual exam question for Qlik's QREP exam
Question #: 3
Topic #: 2
[All QREP Questions]

A Qlik Replicate administrator is replicating data from a source system with some columns with large PDFs. Which data type should be used?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

For replicating columns that contain large PDFs, the appropriate data type to use in Qlik Replicate is:

D . BLOB: This stands for Binary Large Object and is the data type used for storing large binary data such as PDF files. The BLOB data type is suitable for handling the size and binary nature of PDF files1.

The other options are not suitable for the following reasons:

A . DLOB: This is not a recognized data type in Qlik Replicate.

B . NCLOB: NCLOB, or National Character Large Object, is used for storing large text data in the national character set and is not optimal for binary data like PDFs.

C . NVARCHAR(1000): NVARCHAR is a character data type with a specified length, which would not be suitable for large binary objects like PDFs due to size limitations and the nature of the data.

For more information on data types and their usage in Qlik Replicate, you can refer to the official Qlik Replicate documentation on Replicate data types.

I’m not convinced, isn’t there a better option for PDFs?

Wait, are we sure about BLOB? What if the PDFs have text?

I practiced a similar question where BLOB was the answer for large binary files, so I'm leaning towards that option here too.

I feel like NCLOB might be for character data, so I don't think that's the right answer for binary files like PDFs.

I remember something about DLOBs being used for large objects, but I can't recall if they specifically apply to PDFs.

I'm a bit confused by the different data type options here. NVARCHAR(1000) seems too small for large PDFs, and I'm not sure what DLOB and NCLOB are. I'll have to review my notes on Qlik Replicate data types to make sure I choose the best one for this scenario.

Okay, let me see here. The question is asking about replicating data with large PDFs, so we need a data type that can handle that kind of large binary data. I'm pretty confident BLOB is the right answer, but I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know BLOB is used for binary data, but I'm not familiar with the other options like DLOB and NCLOB. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This looks like a straightforward question about data types in Qlik Replicate. I think the answer is BLOB, since that's the data type typically used for large binary objects like PDFs.

This is a good question to test our knowledge of Qlik Replicate data types. Based on the requirement to handle large PDFs, I think BLOB is the way to go. It's designed for storing binary large objects, which sounds perfect for this use case.

D seems like the worst option to me. Leaving out backup data is a recipe for disaster if you get unexpected questions. I'd definitely avoid that one.

Hmm, BLOB sounds like the obvious choice here. Unless the PDFs are secretly encoded in alien hieroglyphics, in which case NCLOB might be the way to go.

NVARCHAR(1000)? Really? That's not going to cut it for PDFs, unless they're all under 1KB. BLOB is the way to go, no doubt.

DLOB? What is that, some kind of new data type I haven't heard of? I'm going with BLOB, the classic choice for handling large binary data.
