Snowflake Exam ARA-R01 Topic 4 Question 18 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's ARA-R01 exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 4
[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:

Option B is alright, but Latin-1 encoding? What is this, the 90s? Let's stay modern with UTF-8 for text data.

Option A is the way to go. Keeping everything within Snowflake's internal storage is the simplest and most secure approach.

I'd go with Option D. Having multiple file formats and user-supplied encryption keys gives you a lot of flexibility.
