Salesforce Certified Data Architect — Question 6

Universal Containers has a requirement to store more than 100 million records in Salesforce and needs to create a custom big object to support this business requirement.
Which two tools should a data architect use to build custom big object? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Go to Big Object in Setup and select new to create big object.
• B. Use Metadata API to create big object.
• C. Go to Object Manager in Setup and select new to create big object.
• D. Use DX to create big object.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

Option A is correct because accessing the Big Object section in Setup allows for the direct creation of big objects. Option B is also correct as the Metadata API provides the necessary functionality to create big objects programmatically. Options C and D are incorrect because Object Manager does not support big object creation, and while DX can be used for deployment, it is not the primary method for creating big objects.
