Oracle Exam 1Z0-1091-22 Topic 10 Question 17 Discussion

Actual exam question for Oracle's 1Z0-1091-22 exam

Question #: 17
Topic #: 10

A customer is starting an Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI) roll-out initiative and they plan to replace their legacy scalar time-of-use (TOU) meters with smart meters. They want customer information system (CIS) to continue to bill for the same TOU periods and they do not want to change the CIS rates.

In which THREE ways can you configure Meter Data Management (MDM) to support this requirement?

AWrite a custom algorithm to determine the proper rate.

BAdd an extendable lookup value containing the new device configuration type and the new usage calculation group.

CAdd the TOU mapping rule to the existing usage calculation group.

DAdd a new usage calculation group with a TOU mapping rule.

ESet up the new usage calculation group to be identified dynamically by plug-in logic supplied on the usage subscription's type.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B, C

In a SaaS environment, Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management and Smart Grid Gateway are deployed on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and use OCI Object Storage to store files and data. OCI Object Storage is a scalable and secure service that allows users to store and access data from anywhere using REST APIs or web consoles. Smart Grid Gateway adapters process usage and device event payloads via batch processing. Files are sent from a head-end system (HES) to an OCI Object Storage location, where they are batch processed. According to the Oracle Utilities Smart Grid Gateway User Guide, some operations that are performed by the Smart Grid Gateway processes are:

Parse payload into individual usage readings/device events. This is an operation that extracts usage readings or device events from the payload file and converts them into individual records.

Invoke IMD/Device Event Seeder (as appropriate). This is an operation that invokes a web service that sends usage readings or device events to Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management for further processing.

Transform usage readings into standard (unified) format. This is an operation that converts usage readings from vendor-specific formats into a standard format that can be processed by Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management.

All these options sound like they involve a lot of 'configuration' and 'calculation groups.' Maybe the customer should just stick with their trusty old scalar TOU meters and call it a day!

User 1: It does seem like a lot of work to set up those configuration options.

This question is a real head-scratcher! I hope the correct answer isn't hidden in some obscure technical manual. 'Meter Data Management' - sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie!

I'm not a fan of the custom algorithm in option A. That feels like a risky and unsustainable approach. Better to leverage the existing MDM functionality.

User 2: We could just add the TOU mapping rule to the existing usage calculation group.

Option E is interesting, but it might be overkill for this scenario. Dynamically identifying the usage calculation group via plug-in logic could be more complex than necessary.

I personally prefer option D because adding a new usage calculation group with a TOU mapping rule seems like a straightforward solution to me.

C and D seem like the most straightforward options to configure the MDM to support the customer's requirement. The TOU mapping rule should be added to the existing usage calculation group, and a new usage calculation group with a TOU mapping rule can be added as well.
