Which use case can you implement by using the Data Object wizard to establish a connection to a data source?

The use case that can be implemented using the Data Object wizard to establish a connection to a data source focuses on the capability of the Pega Platform to interact with external data sources and provide seamless integrations with those systems. One of the primary functionalities of the Data Object wizard is to facilitate the management of data entities, allowing users to define how data is stored, retrieved, and manipulated within the Pega environment.

The first use case, which involves persisting updated records to a data table in the Pega Platform database, directly aligns with the primary purpose of the Data Object wizard. This wizard allows you to create and configure data classes that map to external data sources, thereby enabling you to save data back to Pega's database effectively. It provides a streamlined interface for defining how Pega will interact with the data over time, including inserting, updating, or deleting records as necessary.

In contrast, other options involve differing levels of complexity or different functionalities:

• Making data object records available to other Pega Platform applications through a REST service focuses on interoperability between different Pega applications, rather than on simply establishing a connection to a data source.

• Accessing a web service with a SOAP call using a GET or POST method pertains to service integrations rather than direct data
