Question 703

What are characteristics of transient tables in Snowflake? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: C, E

    Transient tables in Snowflake have specific characteristics. They persist until they are explicitly dropped, differentiating them from temporary tables which are automatically dropped at the end of a session. Additionally, transient tables have Time Travel retention periods of either 0 or 1 day, as they are designed for scenarios where the data does not need long-term retention or extensive recovery options. They do not have a Fail-safe period, and they cannot be cloned to permanent tables or altered to become permanent.
