Question 1
A Customer 360 implementation receives customer files nightly from five regional ERP systems. The
implementation requires each file to be validated, transformed, and loaded while ensuring that
partial failures do not affect previously loaded regions.
Which onboarding approach best satisfies this requirement?
A. Use one ingestion job for all files with automatic retries.
B. Configure separate data integration assets for each region and execute independent ingress jobs.
C. Merge all files before ingestion using Secure Agent.
D. Use Business Events to combine all source records before loading.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Independent ingestion assets isolate failures, allowing one regional load to fail without impacting
successful loads from other regions. This design also simplifies restart and monitoring. A single
ingestion process increases failure scope.
Question 2
A developer is onboarding customer data from Salesforce and SAP. Customer IDs overlap numerically
but represent different entities.
Which data model modification prevents identifier conflicts?
A. Create separate source systems for Salesforce and SAP.
B. Enable fuzzy matching.
C. Use identical source identifiers.
D. Disable source tracking.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Source Systems uniquely identify the origin of records. Even if IDs overlap, the combination of Source
System and Source ID remains unique, preventing collisions.
Question 3
During match training, analysts discover two customers with similar names are consistently matched
incorrectly because of identical postal codes.
Which action should be performed first?
A. Delete the match model.

B. Retrain using additional distinguishing attributes.
C. Disable survivorship.
D. Create another Secure Agent.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Training improves algorithm accuracy by incorporating additional discriminating fields such as email,
phone, or date of birth rather than relying heavily on postal codes.
Question 4
Which Informatica Cloud service is primarily responsible for building ingestion mappings used in
Customer 360?
A. Cloud Application Integration
B. Cloud Data Integration
C. API Manager
D. Data Marketplace
Answer: B
Explanation:
Cloud Data Integration (CDI) is responsible for ETL, mappings, transformations, synchronization, and
onboarding workflows.
Question 5
A Smart Field must concatenate First Name and Last Name while automatically updating whenever
either value changes.
What is the recommended implementation?
A. Static lookup
B. Smart Field expression
C. Match Key
D. Business Event
Answer: B
Explanation:
Smart Fields dynamically compute values based on source attributes and automatically refresh when
dependent fields change.

Question 6
An organization wants every imported customer email address converted to lowercase before
matching.
Where should this transformation occur?
A. Secure Agent installation
B. Cleansing mapping
C. Dashboard widget
D. User Role configuration
Answer: B
Explanation:
Cleansing mappings normalize incoming data before match processing, improving consistency and
match quality.
Question 7
Which statement best describes a Match Key?
A. Primary database index
B. Derived value used by matching algorithms
C. User authentication token
D. Secure Agent identifier
Answer: B
Explanation:
A Match Key is a standardized value derived from selected attributes to efficiently compare candidate
records.
Question 8
A background synchronization job repeatedly exceeds its execution window because multiple source
systems are synchronized simultaneously.
Which optimization is most appropriate?
A. Increase dashboard refresh frequency.
B. Stagger synchronization schedules.
C. Remove source systems.
D. Disable business entities.
Answer: B

resources.
Question 9
Which component enables secure communication between on-premises databases and IDMC?
A. Cloud Data Integration

C. Business Console
D. Match Console
Answer: B
Explanation:
The Secure Agent securely connects on-premises resources with Informatica Intelligent Data
Management Cloud.
Question 10
When designing Person and Organization business entities, which principle should be followed?
A. Combine all attributes into one entity.
B. Separate attributes according to business semantics.
C. Store hierarchy information inside Smart Fields.
D. Use only custom entities.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Business entities should accurately represent business concepts while minimizing redundancy.
Question 11
A fuzzy match rule produces excessive false positives.
Which adjustment typically improves precision?
A. Lower similarity threshold.
B. Increase similarity threshold.
C. Disable normalization.
D. Remove all exact rules.
