 Transient tables in Snowflake have a minimum Fail-safe retention time period of 0 days. This means that once the Time Travel retention period ends, there is no additional Fail-safe period for transient tables

The command USE WAREHOUSE <<warehouse name>>; is used to set the virtual warehouse for the current session in Snowflake. This command specifies which virtual warehouse to use for executing queries in that session1.

 In Snowflake, both materialized views and transient tables will incur storage charges because they store data. They will also incur compute charges when queries are run against them, as compute resources are used to process the queries. References: [COF-C02] SnowPro Core Certification Exam Study Guide

 The COPY command is used in Snowflake to load data from files located in an external stage into a table. This command allows for efficient and parallelized data loading from various file formats1.

 Snowflake uses a Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model to manage access to data and resources. Additionally, Snowflake ensures that all data is encrypted, both at rest and in transit, to provide a high level of security for data stored within the platform. References: [COF-C02] SnowPro Core Certification Exam Study Guide

 Organizing files into logical paths can significantly improve the efficiency of data loading from an external stage. This practice helps in managing and locating files easily, which can be particularly beneficial when dealing with large datasets or complex directory structures1.

 Data encryption and Time Travel are part of Snowflake’s Continuous Data Protection (CDP) feature set that do not require additional configuration. Data encryption is automatically applied to all filesstored on internal stages, and Time Travel allows for querying and restoring data without any extra setup

Best practices for using the ACCOUNTADMIN role include ensuring that all users with this role use Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for added security. Additionally, it is recommendedto assign the ACCOUNTADMIN role to at least two users to avoid delays in case of password recovery issues, but to as few users as possible to maintain strict control over account-level operations4.
