ARA-C01 Exam Dumps : SnowPro Advanced: Architect Certification Exam

The requirements state that the data analysts need to be able to create and modify database objects and load data, but should not be able to manage access for users outside of their role.

Option C:By making each schema within the database a managed access schema and having them owned by SYSADMIN, the ability to grant privileges on the schema's objects is strictly controlled. Managed access schemas limit the granting of privileges to the role specified as the owner of the schema, in this case, SYSADMIN. The ANALYST_ROLE can be granted the privileges necessary to create and modify objects within these schemas, satisfying the requirement for the analysts to perform their tasks without being able to extend access beyond their role.

 According to the SnowPro Advanced: Architect documents and learning resources, a characteristic of loading data into Snowflake using the Snowflake Connector for Kafka is that the Connector creates and manages its own stage, file format, and pipe objects. The stage is an internal stage that is used to store the data files from the Kafka topics. The file format is a JSON or Avro file format that is used to parse the data files. The pipe is a Snowpipe object that is used to load the data files into the Snowflake table. The Connector automatically creates and configures these objects based on the Kafka configuration properties, and handles the cleanup and maintenance of these objects1.

The other options are incorrect because they are not characteristics of loading data into Snowflake using the Snowflake Connector for Kafka. Option A is incorrect because the Connector works in Snowflake regions that use any cloud infrastructure, not just AWS. The Connector supports AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud platforms, and can load data across different regions and cloud platforms using data replication2. Option B is incorrect because the Connector does not work with all file formats, only JSON and Avro. The Connector expects the data in the Kafka topics to be in JSON or Avro format, and parses the data accordingly. Other file formats, such as text, ORC, Parquet, or XML, are not supported by the Connector3. Option D is incorrect because loads using the Connector do not have lower latency than Snowpipe, and do not ingest data in real time. The Connector uses Snowpipe to load data into Snowflake, and inherits the same latency and performance characteristics of Snowpipe. The Connector does not provide real-time ingestion, but near real-time ingestion, depending on the frequency and size of the data files4. References: Installing and Configuring the Kafka Connector | Snowflake Documentation, Sharing Data Across Regions and Cloud Platforms | Snowflake Documentation, Overview of the Kafka Connector | Snowflake Documentation, Using Snowflake Connector for Kafka With Snowpipe Streaming | Snowflake Documentation

 According to the SnowPro Advanced: Architect documents and learning resources, the minimum object privileges required for the Snowpipe user to execute Snowpipe are:

OWNERSHIP on the named pipe. This privilege allows the Snowpipe user to create, modify, and drop the pipe object that defines the COPY statement for loading data from the stage to the table1.

USAGE and READ on the named stage. These privileges allow the Snowpipe user to access and read the data files from the stage that are loaded by Snowpipe2.

USAGE on the target database and schema. These privileges allow the Snowpipe user to access the database and schema that contain the target table3.

INSERT and SELECT on the target table. These privileges allow the Snowpipe user to insert data into the table and select data from the table4.

The other options are incorrect because they do not specify the minimum object privileges required for the Snowpipe user to execute Snowpipe. Option A is incorrect because it does not include the READ privilege on the named stage, which is required for the Snowpipe user to read the data files from the stage. Option C is incorrect because it does not include the OWNERSHIP privilege on the named pipe, which is required for the Snowpipe user to create, modify, and drop the pipe object. Option D is incorrect because it does not include the OWNERSHIP privilege on the named pipe or the READ privilege on the named stage, which are both required for the Snowpipe user to execute Snowpipe. References: CREATE PIPE | Snowflake Documentation, CREATE STAGE | Snowflake Documentation, CREATE DATABASE | Snowflake Documentation, CREATE TABLE | Snowflake Documentation
