Salesforce Certified Development Lifecycle and Deployment Architect — Question 32

Universal Containers wants to delete the day’s test data in a partial copy sandbox every night, setting the sandbox back to a fresh state for tomorrows testing. The test data is approximately 1GB.

What is the best strategy the architect should recommend?

Answer options

• A. Execute a batch job that deletes all records created on the day.
• B. Create a new developer copy sandbox every night.
• C. Refresh the sandbox every night.
• D. Manually delete all records individually.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because executing a batch job allows for efficient deletion of all records created that day, which is necessary for resetting the sandbox. Options B and C would be resource-intensive and unnecessary since the goal is to delete specific data, while D is time-consuming and impractical for a large dataset.
