A data pipeline is scheduled to run every four hours on Mondays and Fridays. Which Repeat setting should be chosen?

• A. Daily
• B. By the minute
• C. Weekly
• D. Hourly

Answer: (C)

Think about how a schedule expresses both cadence and scope. You need a cadence of every four hours, but only on specific days of the week. A Weekly Repeat setting fits because it lets you pick the days (Monday and Friday) and specify an interval (every four hours) within those days. For example, on those days you’d get runs at 00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, and 20:00, depending on the chosen start time. The Daily option would run on every day, which isn’t correct; Hourly would run every hour on all days, not just Mondays and Fridays; By the minute would be far more frequent than four hours. So the Weekly setting best matches the requirement.
