DreamHouse Realty has 15 million records in the Order_c custom object. When running a bulk query, the query times out.

What should be considered to address this issue?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

single-select restricted picklist with defined choices can be a way to configure customer type. The article states that picklists are fields that allow users to select one or more predefined values from a list, and restricted picklists ensure that users can only select from the defined values. This can help to limit the choices for customer type and ensure data quality.

The Streaming API seems like it’s for real-time data, not bulk queries, right? I’m a bit confused about which one to pick.

I practiced a similar question where PK Chunking helped with timeouts, so I feel like that might be the right choice here.

I think the Metadata API is more about managing metadata rather than handling bulk queries, so I’m leaning away from that option.

I remember something about PK Chunking being useful for large data sets, but I'm not entirely sure how it works in this context.

I think the key here is that we're dealing with a large dataset. B. PK Chunking is probably the way to go - it allows you to break the query into smaller, more manageable chunks based on the primary key. That should help avoid the timeout issue.

Okay, let's see. If the query is timing out, that suggests we need a more efficient way to retrieve the data. The Tooling API and Metadata API options don't seem directly relevant to that. The Streaming API could work, but PK Chunking sounds like the most straightforward solution here.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. The options seem a bit technical, and I'm not super familiar with all the different Salesforce APIs. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. PK Chunking, since the question mentions the query timing out with a large number of records. That's a common issue that can be solved by breaking the query into smaller chunks.
