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.

The correct answer is B because the compilation time is the time it takes for the optimizer to create an optimal query plan for the efficient execution of the query. The compilation time depends on the complexity of the query, such as the number of tables, columns, joins, filters, aggregations, subqueries, etc. The more complex the query, the longer it takes to compile.

Option A is incorrect because the query processing time is not affected by the size of the dataset, but by the size of the virtual warehouse. Snowflake automatically scales the compute resources to match the data volume and parallelizes the query execution. The size of the dataset may affect the execution time, but not the compilation time.

Option C is incorrect because the query queue time is not part of the compilation time or the execution time. It is a separate metric that indicates how long the query waits for a warehouse slot before it starts running. The query queue time depends on the warehouse load, concurrency, and priority settings.

Option D is incorrect because the query remote IO time is not part of the compilation time or the execution time. It is a separate metric that indicates how long the query spends reading data from remote storage, such as S3 or Azure Blob Storage. The query remote IO time depends on the network latency, bandwidth, and caching efficiency. References:

Understanding Why Compilation Time in Snowflake Can Be Higher than Execution Time: This article explains why the total duration (compilation + execution) time is an essential metric to measure query performance in Snowflake. It discusses the reasons for the long compilation time, including query complexity and the number of tables and columns.

Exploring Execution Times: This document explains how to examine the past performance of queries and tasks using Snowsight or by writing queries against views in the ACCOUNT_USAGE schema. It also describes the different metrics and dimensions that affect query performance, such as duration, compilation, execution, queue, and remote IO time.

What is the “compilation time” and how to optimize it?: This community post provides some tips and best practices on how to reduce the compilation time, such as simplifying the query logic, using views or common table expressions, and avoiding unnecessary columns or joins.

To ensure that ananalyst_usercan only access Snowflake from specific IP addresses, the following steps are required:

Option B: This alters the network policy directly linked toanalyst_user. Setting a network policy on the user level is effective and ensures that the specified network restrictions apply directly and exclusively to this user.

Option D: Before a network policy can be set or altered, the appropriate role with permission to manage network policies must be used.SECURITYADMINis typically the role that has privileges to create and manage network policies in Snowflake. Creating a network policy that specifies allowed IP addresses ensures that only requests coming from those IPs can access Snowflake under this policy. After creation, this policy can be linked to specific users or roles as needed.

Options A and E mention altering roles or using the wrong role (USERADMINtypically does not manage network security settings), and option C incorrectly attempts to set a network policy directly as an IP address, which is not syntactically or functionally valid.
