Which view should you use to identify commonly run commands in your data warehouse?

• A. queryinsights.exec_requests_history
• B. queryinsights.frequently_run_queries
• C. queryinsights.long_running_queries
• D. queryinsights.recent_queries

Answer: (B)

To identify commonly run commands, you want a view that shows how often each query is executed. The frequently_run_queries view is designed for this because it aggregates execution counts by query, letting you see which queries are run most often. This helps you spot popular workloads to optimize, perhaps by rewriting those queries, adding caching, or materializing results to improve overall performance. Other views serve different purposes: exec_requests_history is a raw log of executions and can be noisy for pattern spotting; long_running_queries highlights expensive, slow queries rather than frequent ones; recent_queries shows what's happened recently but not which queries are consistently used.
