The Snowflake Kafka connector uses three Snowflake objects: pipe, internal table stage, and internal named stage. The pipe object is used to load data from an external stage into a Snowflake table using COPY statements. The internal table stage is used to store files that are loaded from Kafka topics into Snowflake using PUT commands. The internal named stage is used to store files that are rejected by the COPY statements due to errors or invalid data. The other options are not objects that are used by the Snowflake Kafka connector. Option B, serverless task, is an object that can execute SQL statements on a schedule without requiring a warehouse. Option C, internal user stage, is an object that can store files for a specific user in Snowflake using PUT commands. Option F, storage integration, is an object that can enable secure access to external cloud storage services without exposing credentials.

The total_constant_partition_count value indicates the number of micro-partitions where the clustering key column has a constant value across all rows in the micro-partition. However, this does not necessarily mean that the table is clustered well on that column, as there could be other micro-partitions where the range of values in that column overlap with each other. This is the case for the orders table, as the clustering depth is 1, which means that every micro-partition overlaps with every other micro-partition on O_ORDERDATE. This indicates that the table is not clustered well on O_ORDERDATE and could benefit from reclustering.

 The roles that can grant access to the CUSTOMER table are the role that owns the schema, the role that owns the database, and the SECURITYADMIN role. These roles have the ownership or the manage grants privilege on the schema or the database level, which allows them to grant access to any object within them. The other options are incorrect because they do not have the necessary privilege to grant access to the CUSTOMER table. Option C is incorrect because the role that owns the customer table cannot grant access to itself or to other roles. Option D is incorrect because the SYSADMIN role does not have the manage grants privilege by default and cannot grant access to objects that it does not own. Option F is incorrect because the USERADMIN role with the manage grants privilege can only grant access to users and roles, not to tables.

External stages only from any region, and any cloud provider support external tables. External tables are virtual tables that can query data from files stored in external stages without loading them into Snowflake tables. External stages are references to locations outside of Snowflake, such as Amazon S3 buckets, Azure Blob Storage containers, or Google Cloud Storage buckets. External stages can be created from any region and any cloud provider, as long as they have a valid URL and credentials. The other options are incorrect because internal stages do notsupport external tables. Internal stages are locations within Snowflake that can store files for loading or unloading data. Internal stages can be user stages, table stages, or named stages.

This option will meet the requirements of creating a new development database (DEV) as a clone of the permanent production database (PROD) and disabling Fail-safe for all tables. By using the CREATE TRANSIENT DATABASE command, the Data Engineer can create a transient database that does not have Fail-safe enabled by default. Fail-safe is a feature in Snowflake that provides additional protection against data loss by retaining historical data for seven days beyond the time travel retention period. Transient databases do not have Fail-safe enabled, which means that they do not incur additional storage costs for historical data beyond their time travel retention period. By using the CLONE option, the Data Engineer can create an exact copy of the PROD database, including its schemas, tables, views, and other objects.

The recommended approach to maximize performance of this query if the Profile shows data spillage is to increase the warehouse size. Data spillage occurs when the query requires more memory than the warehouse can provide and has to spill some intermediate results to disk. This can degrade the query performance by increasing the disk IO time. Increasing the warehouse size can increase the amount of memory available for the query and reduce or eliminate data spillage.

The result cache is enabled at the session level, which means that repeated queries will return cached results if there is no change in the underlying data or session parameters. However, in this case, the result cache is not relevant because the query uses a specific SEED value for sampling, which makes it deterministic. Therefore, both runs will return the same results regardless of caching.

Creating a DataFrame from a table will start a virtual warehouse because it requires reading data from Snowflake. The other options will not start a virtual warehouse because they either operate on local data or use an existing session to query Snowflake.

The SNOWFLAKE.DATA SHARING _USAGE.LISTING_CONSOKE>TION_DAILY view provides information about consumer requests by region for each of the Data Exchange offeringsannually, as well as click-through rates for each listing. This view is the minimal data source needed for building the reporting tables. The other views are not relevant for this use case.
