[All ARA-R01 Questions]

An Architect needs to design a data unloading strategy for Snowflake, that will be used with the COPY INTO command.

Which configuration is valid?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

For the configuration of data unloading in Snowflake, the valid option among the provided choices is 'C.' This is because Snowflake supports unloading data into Google Cloud Storage using the COPY INTO <location> command with specific configurations. The configurations listed in option C, such as Parquet file format with UTF-8 encoding and gzip compression, are all supported by Snowflake. Notably, Parquet is a columnar storage file format, which is optimal for high-performance data processing tasks in Snowflake. The UTF-8 file encoding and gzip compression are both standard and widely used settings that are compatible with Snowflake's capabilities for data unloading to cloud storage platforms. Reference:

User-supplied encryption keys? Now we're talking security! Option D is the way to go.

Hold up, did someone say Parquet? That's my kind of data format! Option C gets my vote.

Hmm, I'm not sure about option B. Latin-1 encoding might not be the best choice for modern data processing.

Option A is my pick. Snowflake's internal storage and the standard CSV and XML formats are a simple and reliable solution.

I'd go with option D. Azure ADLS and the wide range of supported file formats make it a flexible choice for the data unloading strategy.

Option C looks good. Parquet format and gzip compression are a solid choice for efficient data storage and transfer.

That's a good point, I see why option D could be a valid choice for the data unloading strategy.

I disagree, I believe option D is the correct configuration as it uses Azure ADLS and supports multiple file formats with encryption.

I think option C is valid because it uses Google Cloud Storage and has the correct file format and encoding.
