Which dbt feature allows multiple models to run at the same time when they have no dependencies between them?
ASnapshots
BParallelism
CIncremental loading
DMaterializations
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify feature for concurrent execution

    Parallelism means running multiple tasks simultaneously when they don't depend on each other.
  2. Step 2: Match with dbt features

    In dbt, parallelism controls how many models run at once if they have no dependencies.
  3. Final Answer:

    Parallelism -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Parallelism = concurrent runs [OK]
Quick Trick: Parallelism runs independent models simultaneously [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Confusing parallelism with incremental loading
  • Thinking snapshots control parallel runs
  • Mixing materializations with execution concurrency
