SnowPro Core Exam - Question 163


What are the responsibilities of Snowflake's Cloud Service layer? (Choose three.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: ABDE

The Cloud Service layer in Snowflake is responsible for Authentication, Resource management, and Query parsing and optimization. This layer includes services for managing infrastructure, metadata, and access control. Authentication ensures that users are correctly identified and access controls are enforced. Resource management handles the allocation and deallocation of computing resources as needed. Query parsing and optimization involves processing SQL queries to determine the most efficient way to execute them. These responsibilities align directly with the functionalities provided by the Cloud Service layer in Snowflake.
