Which type of listing in the Snowflake Marketplace can be added and queried immediately?
According to the Snowflake documentation1, a standard listing is a type of listing that provides free access to the full data product, with no payment required. A standard listing can be added and queried immediately by the consumer, as long as they accept the terms and conditions of the listing. A monetized listing is a type of listing that charges for access to the data product, using the pricing models offered by Snowflake. A monetized listing requires the consumer to provide payment information and agree to the billing terms before accessing the data product. A regional listing is not a type of listing, but a way to specify the regions where the listing is available. A personalized listing is a type of listing that provides limited trial access to the data product, with unlimited access to the full data product available upon request. A personalized listing requires the consumer to request access from the provider and wait for the provider to grant access before accessing the data product. Therefore, the only type of listing that can be added and queried immediately is the standard listing.
Which Snowflake objects can be managed using SCIM integration? (Select TWO).
A SCIM security integration allows the automated management of user identities and groups (i.e. roles) by creating an interface between Snowflake and a third-party Identity Provider (IdP)1. Snowflake supports SCIM integration with Okta, Azure, and custom SCIM clients2. SCIM integration does not support managing other Snowflake objects, such as stages, warehouses, or shares3. Therefore, the answer is B. Users and D. Roles.
What are the MINIMUM grants required on the database, schema, and table for a stream to be properly created and managed?
A company has many users in the role ANALYST who routinely query Snowflake through a reporting tool. The Administrator has noticed that the ANALYST users keep two
small clusters busy all of the time, and occasionally they need three or four clusters of that size.
Based on this scenario, how should the Administrator set up a virtual warehouse to MOST efficiently support this group of users?
According to the Snowflake documentation1, a multi-cluster warehouse is a virtual warehouse that consists of multiple clusters of compute resources that can scale up or down automatically to handle the concurrency and performance needs of the queries submitted to the warehouse. A multi-cluster warehouse has a minimum and maximum number of clusters that can be specified by the administrator. Option B is the most efficient way to support the group of users, as it allows the administrator to create a multi-cluster warehouse with MIN_CLUSTERS set to 2, which means that the warehouse will always have two clusters running to handle the standard workload. The warehouse can also auto-scale up to the maximum number of clusters (which can be set according to the peak workload) when there is a spike in demand, and then scale down when the demand decreases. The warehouse can also auto-resume and auto-suspend, which means that the warehouse will automatically start when a query is submitted and automatically stop after a period of inactivity. The administrator can also give USAGE privileges to the ANALYST role, which means that the users can use the warehouse to execute queries and load data, but not modify or operate the warehouse. Option A is not efficient, as it requires the users to manually start and stop the warehouse, and increase the number of clusters as needed, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. Option C is not efficient, as it creates a standard X-Large warehouse, which is equivalent to four small clusters, which may be more than needed for the standard workload, and may not be enough for the peak workload. Option D is not efficient, as it creates four virtual warehouses of different sizes, which can be confusing and cumbersome for the users to select the appropriate warehouse based on how many queries are being run, and may also result in wasted resources and costs.
For Snowflake network policies, what will occur when the account_level and user_level network policies are both defined?
According to the Network Policies documentation, a network policy can be applied to an account, a security integration, or a user. If there are network policies applied to more than one of these, the most specific network policy overrides more general network policies. The following summarizes the order of precedence:
* Account: Network policies applied to an account are the most general network policies. They are overridden by network policies applied to a security integration or user.
* Security Integration: Network policies applied to a security integration override network policies applied to the account, but are overridden by a network policy applied to a user.
* User: Network policies applied to a user are the most specific network policies. They override both accounts and security integrations.
Therefore, if both the account_level and user_level network policies are defined, the user_level policy will take effect and the account_level policy will be ignored. The other options are incorrect because:
* The account_level policy will not override the user_level policy, as explained above.
* The user_level network policies will be supported, as they are part of the network policy feature.
* A network policy error will not be generated, as there is no conflict between the account_level and user_level network policies.
