They have already created two plot lines, A and B, that represent the current latency and the latency a week ago, respectively. How can the engineer use these two plot lines to determine the rate of change in latency?

ACreate a temporary plot by dragging items A and B into the Analytics Explorer window.

BCreate a plot C using the formula (A-B) and add a scale:percent function to express the rate of change as a percentage.

CCreate a plot C using the formula (A/B-l) and add a scale: 100 function to express the rate of change as a percentage.

Suggested Answer: A

The correct answer is A. 64.

According to the web search results, the limit on the number of properties that an MTS can have is 64. A property is a key-value pair that you can assign to a dimension of an existing MTS to add more context to the metrics. For example, you can add the property use: QA to the host dimension of your metrics to indicate that the host is used for QA1

Properties are different from dimensions, which are key-value pairs that are sent along with the metrics at the time of ingest. Dimensions, along with the metric name, uniquely identify an MTS. The limit on the number of dimensions per MTS is 362

To learn more about how to use properties and dimensions in Splunk Observability Cloud, you can refer to this documentation2.

I think option B is the way to go. Subtracting the latency from a week ago from the current latency and expressing it as a percentage makes sense.
