SnowPro Core Exam - Question 196


Users are responsible for data storage costs until what occurs?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Users are responsible for data storage costs until data expires from Fail-safe. Storage costs are incurred during the periods when data is in an active state, in Time Travel, and in Fail-safe. The costs continue through these life-cycle states sequentially until the data finally expires from the Fail-safe period, making this the correct point at which users are no longer responsible for storage costs.

Storage fees are incurred for maintaining historical data during both the Time Travel and Fail-safe periods. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/data-cdp-storage-costs.html

That means answer A should be correct!?

Order : data + time travel (0-90) + fail safe(7)

The answer is D. Data is truncated from a table. Once data is truncated from a table, it is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered. Snowflake charges for data storage until the data is truncated.

Storage is calculated and charged for data regardless of whether it is in the Active, Time Travel, or Fail-safe state. Because these life-cycle states are sequential, updated/deleted data protected by CDP will continue to incur storage costs until the data leaves the Fail-safe state. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/tables-storage-considerations.html

I feel D

Should be A, since data can remain in Time Travel for 90 days, while Fail Safe is for 7 days only.

The Fail-Safe append to the 90 days, so its up to 97 days.

B IS RIGHT Storage is calculated and charged for data regardless of whether it is in the Active, Time Travel, or Fail-safe state. Because these life-cycle states are sequential, updated/deleted data protected by CDP will continue to incur storage costs until the data leaves the Fail-safe state. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/tables-storage-considerations

Bringing data from fail safe is not free of cost

Actually I feel the meaning of the question is what is event that incurs extra cost, in that case the table where data modifications are more incur more cost in that case truncating is churning the entire table data will incur maximum cost so I feel the right one is D

No data = no cost

No. If the table is truncated, time -travel comes into the picture which makes you responsible for storage costs again.

Data files staged in Snowflake internal stages are not subject to the additional costs associated with Time Travel and Fail-safe, but they do incur standard data storage costs.
