ADA-C01 Exam Dumps : SnowPro Advanced Administrator

Option B is the correct answer because it follows the steps described in the Snowflake documentation for sharing data from multiple databases using secure views. The data provider needs to grant the REFERENCE_USAGE privilege on each database that contains objects referenced by the secure view, and the USAGE privilege only on the database where the secure view is created. Option A is incorrect because it grants the USAGE privilege instead of the REFERENCE_USAGE privilege. Option C is incorrect because it grants the REFERENCE_USAGE privilege to a database role, which is not supported. Option D is incorrect because it grants the REFERENCE_USAGE privilege on the wrong database.

According to the Snowflake documentation1, organizations are a feature that allows linking the accounts owned by a business entity, simplifying account management and billing, replication and failover, data sharing, and other account administration tasks. Some of the benefits of using organizations are:

•Administrators can monitor and understand usage across all accounts in the organization using the ORGANIZATION_USAGE schema, which provides historical usage data for all accounts in the organization via views in a shared database named SNOWFLAKE2. This can help to optimize costs and performance across the organization.

•Administrators have the ability to create accounts in any available cloud provider or region using the CREATE ACCOUNT command, which allows specifying the cloud platform and region for the new account3. This can help to meet the business needs and compliance requirements of the organization.

Option A is incorrect because administrators cannot change Snowflake account editions on-demand based on need, but rather have to contact Snowflake Support to request an edition change4. Option C is incorrect because administrators cannot simplify data movement across all accounts within the organization, but rather have to enable account database replication for both the source and target accounts, and use the ALTER DATABASE … ENABLE REPLICATION TO ACCOUNTS command to promote a local database to serve as the primary database and enable replication to the target accounts5. Option D is incorrect because user administration is not simplified across all accounts within the organization, but rather requires creating and managing users, roles, and privileges for each account separately, unless using a federated authentication method such as SSO or SCIM.

The inclusion of the CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() function in the second query prevents it from re-using the first query’s persisted result cache because this function makes each execution unique due to the constantly changing timestamp. According to the Snowflake documentation, “The query does not include non-reusable functions, which return different results for successive runs of the same query. UUID_STRING, RANDOM, and RANDSTR are good examples of non-reusable functions.” The CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() function is another example of a non-reusable function, as it returns the current date and time at the start of query execution, which varies for each run. Therefore, the second query is not identical to the first query, and the result cache is not reused. The other options are either incorrect or irrelevant to the question. Option B is incorrect, as the CURRENT_DATE() function is a reusable function, as it returns the same value for all queries executed within the same day. Option C is irrelevant, as the virtual warehouse used to execute the query does not affect the result cache reuse. Option D is also irrelevant, as the role used to execute the query does not affect the result cache reuse, as long as the role has the necessary access privileges for all the tables used in the query.
