A data engineer creates a new Delta table for event analytics. Queries will filter on different combinations of event_date, region, and event_type. Which table design approach does Databricks currently recommend for this multi-column filter scenario?

APartition the table by event_date and region; use ZORDER BY (event_type) after each OPTIMIZE run
BCreate the table with CLUSTER BY (event_date, region, event_type) for liquid clustering
CUse ZORDER BY (event_date, region, event_type) run after each daily OPTIMIZE job
DPartition by event_type only, and filter pushdown handles the other columns automatically
