Six questions on configuration and release management, the DMZ, and PDM's delivery approaches. Retake it as often as you like - your best score is saved.

1Complete: 'Configurable Items are any project ___ that should be ___.'

deliverable; version controlled artefact; deleted after go-live document; encrypted task; automated

2A Release in PDM is best described as:

a collection of configurable items that together deliver a coherent ETL a single ETL script an Agile sprint backlog a signed-off decommissioning certificate

3Which statement about PDM Release Cycles is correct?

They are 'push' - planned by governance, not pulled by the delivery team They are identical to Agile sprints They are planned entirely within the scrum team without business input They forbid producing data for more than one release at once

4Why must the DMZ be defined before a fixed-price contract is signed?

Otherwise data-quality disputes become commercial disputes, and fixed price gives the supplier a perverse incentive to benefit from client-side quality problems Because regulators require it Because Agile cannot start without it Because it determines the ETL tool choice

5True or false: PDM is a strictly waterfall methodology where each phase must finish before the next begins.

True False

6Why is pure agile not recommended for data migration programmes?

Data migration has a non-negotiable go-live, needs formal decommissioning sign-offs, and needs committed business engagement that fluid agile scope makes difficult Agile projects move too quickly Agile teams cannot manage large data volumes PDM release management is incompatible with sprint planning
