SnowPro Core Exam - Question 1011


What does a table with a clustering depth of 1 mean in Snowflake?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

In Snowflake, a table with a clustering depth of 1 means that the table has no overlapping micro-partitions. Clustering depth measures how well sorted the data is within the micro-partitions and a depth of 1 indicates that each micro-partition is distinct and not intersecting with another.

The clustering depth for a populated table measures the average depth (1 or greater) of the overlapping micro-partitions for specified columns in a table. The smaller the average depth, the better clustered the table is with regards to the specified columns.

Higher the overlap micro partition, higher is the overlap depth. Overlap depth=1 means there are no overlap
