‣ Explain the relationship between the dbo and FullAccess schemas.
Answer: The Cogito Dictionary reflects the dbo schema. The FullAccess
schema contains almost everything in the dbo schema (minus a few
metadata columns) plus additional columns in some tables. Since
FullAccess has more data, report writers should use it when writing
queries. However, report writers should also be familiar with dbo due to
its relationship with the Cogito Dictionary.
‣ True or False: A column can either be a primary key or a surrogate
key, but not both. Answer: False. A column can be both a primary key
(the column(s) used to uniquely identify a row) and a surrogate key (a
key created during ETL that does not exist in the source database). In
Caboodle, primary key columns are also surrogate keys.
