If this transformation could generate cluster numbers, I wonder if it could also generate a 'cluster headache' for the poor data analyst who has to work with it.

Obviously the correct answer is B. Generating a datetime value is essential for tracking changes over time in a Slowly Changing Dimension. The other options are just silly.

I'm going to go with B. Generating a datetime value seems like a pretty standard feature for a Slowly Changing Dimension loader. Unless this is some kind of trick question, of course.

I think B is the correct answer too. It makes sense for a SCD Type 2 Loader transformation.

Generating a datetime value sounds like the most reasonable option. I can't imagine why we'd need to generate CPU stats or standardization values in this context.

Yeah, generating standardization values doesn't really fit the purpose of the SCD Type 2 Loader transformation.

This transformation is clearly designed to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions, not generate CPU stats or cluster numbers. I think B is the correct answer here.
