Question 274 of 307

Single answer
You are creating a data model in BigQuery that will hold retail transaction data. Your two largest tables, sales_transaction_header and sales_transaction_line, have a tightly coupled immutable relationship. These tables are rarely modified after load and are frequently joined when queried. You need to model the sales_transaction_header and sales_transaction_line tables to improve the performance of data analytics queries. What should you do?
ACreate a sales_transaction table that holds the sales_transaction_header information as rows and the sales_transaction_line rows as nested and repeated fields.
BCreate a sales_transaction table that holds the sales_transaction_header and sales_transaction_line information as rows, duplicating the sales_transaction_header data for each line.
CCreate a sales_transaction table that stores the sales_transaction_header and sales_transaction_line data as a JSON data type.
DCreate separate sales_transaction_header and sales_transaction_line tables and, when querying, specify the sales_transaction_line first in the WHERE clause.
Correct Answer: A

Create a sales_transaction table that holds the sales_transaction_header information as rows and the sales_transaction_line rows as nested and repeated fields.
