The Data Download Service can handle workspaces with multiple writers.

• A. It can handle workspaces with multiple writers.
• B. It is limited to a single writer.
• C. It cannot be used with multiple writers.
• D. It requires parallel processing to support multiple writers.

Answer: (A)

The capability being tested is that the Data Download Service can feed a workspace that has more than one output writer. The DDS provides the necessary data to the workspace, and a workspace can be configured with multiple writers to output to several formats or destinations from the same input. This means you can, for example, produce both a Shapefile and a GeoJSON in one run without needing a separate process for each writer.

Parallel processing isn’t a requirement to support multiple writers—the workspace will run with its configured writer setup, and multi-threading can be used for performance if desired. The key point is that multiple writers are supported within a single workspace run when using the Data Download Service.
