This question pertains to theData Concepts and Environmentsdomain, focusing on data sources that facilitate online data access. The task is to identify a source that simplifies online data consumption.
Data mart (Option A): A data mart stores structured data for specific business areas, typically accessed internally, not designed for online consumption.
Web scraping (Option B): Web scraping extracts data from websites but requires parsing and cleaning, which isn’t necessarily "easier."
Database (Option C): Databases store data but aren’t inherently designed for online consumption without an interface.
Application programming interface (Option D): An API provides a structured way to access data online, often in formats like JSON, making data consumption easier for applications and users.
The DA0-002 Data Concepts and Environments domain includes understanding "data sources," and APIs are specifically designed to simplify online data access.
