 Batch transforms are a feature that allows creating new data lake objects based on existing data lake objects and applying transformations on them. This can be useful for splitting, merging, or reshaping data to fit the data model or business requirements. In this case, the consultant can use batch transforms to create a second data lake object that contains only the airline points from the original loyalty data object. The original object can be modified to contain only the hotel points. This way, the client can have two separate records for each point system and track and process them accordingly. References: Batch Transforms, Create a Batch Transform

 To create a multi-dimensional metric to identify unified individual lifetime value (LTV), the sequence of data model object (DMO) joins that is necessary within the calculated Insight is Unified Individual > Unified Link Individual > Sales Order. This is because the Unified Individual DMO represents the unified profile of an individual or entity that is created by identity resolution1. The Unified Link Individual DMO represents the link between a unified individual and an individual from a source system2. The Sales Order DMO represents the sales order information from a source system3. By joining these three DMOs, you can calculate the LTV of a unified individual based on the sales order data from different source systems. The other options are incorrect because they do not join the correct DMOs to enable the LTV calculation. Option B is incorrect because the Individual DMO represents the source profile of an individual or entity from a source system, not the unified profile4. Option C is incorrect because the join order is reversed, and you need to start with the Unified Individual DMO to identify the unified profile. Option D is incorrect because it is missing the Unified Link Individual DMO, which is needed to link the unified profile with the source profile. References: UnifiedIndividual DataModel Object, Unified Link Individual Data Model Object, Sales Order Data Model Object, Individual Data Model Object

 Nested segments are segments that include or exclude one or more existing segments. They allow the marketing team to reuse filters and maintain consistency in their data by using an existing segment to build a new one. For example, the marketing team can create a nested segment that includes High Investment Balance Customers and excludes customers who have opted out of email marketing. This way, they can leverage the foundational segment and apply additional criteria without duplicating the rules. The other options are not the best features to ensure consistency because:

B. A calculated insight is a data object that performs calculations on data lake objects or CRM data and returns a result. It is not a segment and cannot be used for activation or personalization.

C. A data kit is a bundle of packageable metadata that can be exported and imported across Data Cloud orgs. It is not a feature for creating segments, but rather for sharing components.

D. Cloning a segment creates a copy of the segment with the same rules and filters. It does not allow the marketing team to add or remove criteria from the original segment, and it may create confusion and redundancy. References: Create a Nested Segment - Salesforce, Save Time with Nested Segments (Generally Available) - Salesforce, Calculated Insights - Salesforce, Create and Publish a Data Kit Unit | Salesforce Trailhead, Create a Segment in Data Cloud - Salesforce

 The result of a segmentation criteria filtering on City | Is Equal To | ‘San José’ is cities only containing 'San José’ or ‘san josé’. This is because the segmentation criteria is case-sensitiveand accent-sensitive, meaning that it will only match the exact value that is entered in the filter1. Therefore, cities containing 'San Jose’, 'san jose’, or ‘San Jose’ will not be included in the result, as they do not match the filter value exactly. To include cities with different variations of the name ‘San José’, you would need to use the OR operator and add multiple filter values, such as ‘San José’ OR ‘San Jose’ OR ‘san jose’ OR 'san josé’2. References: Segmentation Criteria, Segmentation Operators
