Splunk Core Certified Power User — Question 146

Which of the following is true about a datamodel that has been accelerated?

Answer options

• A. They can no longer be used in the Pivot tool.
• B. They can still be used in the Pivot tool but only with the accelerate_pivot capability.
• C. They can be used with Pivot, the |tstats command, or the |datamodel command.
• D. They can be used with the |tstats command, but will only return that data which has been accelerated.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because an accelerated datamodel can be utilized across multiple tools including Pivot, |tstats, and |datamodel commands. Option A is incorrect as accelerated datamodels can still be used in Pivot, while option B is misleading since they do not require the accelerate_pivot capability for basic usage in Pivot. Option D is also incorrect because while they can be used with |tstats, they do not limit results to only accelerated data.
