Certified Data Management Professional – Fundamentals (CDMP) — Question 112

Project costs will increase faster by adding to the data model than adding to the process model because:

Answer options

• A. Each additional data item adds complexity to the data warehouse
• B. Each additional data item adds a number of processes to fully manage it
• C. Each additional data item increases the complexity of data migration
• D. Each additional data item drives an increase in storage space
• E. Each additional data item drives an increase in security risk of the data

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because adding each new data item necessitates the creation of several processes to effectively manage that data. The other options, while they may accurately describe challenges associated with adding data items, do not specifically address the increased number of processes required, which is the primary reason for the faster cost increase.
