Question 148

The Snowflake Cloud Data Platform is described as having which of the following architectures?

    Correct Answer: C

    The Snowflake Cloud Data Platform is described as having a Multi-cluster shared data architecture. This architecture allows multiple compute clusters to access the same centralized data repository, combining elements of both shared-disk and shared-nothing architectures. This setup enables efficient data storage and high-performance computing, accommodating the need to handle large data volumes with speed and scalability.

Discussion
learner2023Option: B

Snowflake’s architecture is a hybrid of traditional shared-disk and shared-nothing database architectures. Similar to shared-disk architectures, Snowflake uses a central data repository for persisted data that is accessible from all compute nodes in the platform.

This might be true but this is not a typical description: "is described as"

SV1122Option: C

Correct answer is C - The storage is shared however the compute is multi clustered https://www.snowflake.com/product/architecture/

Correct Answer: C

MBratOption: C

https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/intro-key-concepts#snowflake-architecture "Snowflake uses a central data repository for persisted data that is accessible from all compute nodes in the platform" So it is definitely shared data "Snowflake processes queries using MPP (massively parallel processing) compute clusters" And it uses multiple clusters for processing. So the answer is C, Multi-cliuster shared data. Sometimes the question answers aren't verbatim from the docs, you have to understand the meaning of words.

Alex_OvidiuOption: D

The Snowflake Cloud Data Platform is described as having a D. Serverless query engine architecture. While Snowflake leverages elements of both shared-disk and shared-nothing architectures for data storage and processing, the core aspect that defines its architecture is the serverless nature of the query engine.

https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/intro-key-concepts#snowflake-architecture "Snowflake’s architecture is a hybrid of traditional shared-disk and shared-nothing database architectures." On the day of March 28th 2024 I could not find any explicit mention of Multi-cluster shared data architecture in the mentioned article. I guess this question is quite obsolete or maybe the most commonly voted answer is a kind of a synonym for "a hybrid of traditional shared-disk and shared-nothing". Not fully sure

_yyuktaOption: C

C. Multi-cluster shared data

VenkataPhaniPavanKumarOption: C

Correct Answer : C The Snowflake data platform has multi-cluster shared data architecture is designed to handle large data volumes with speed and efficiency. All data processing horsepower within Snowflake is managed by one or more clusters of computing resources.

AlexbDkuOption: C

C - multiple clusters access the same data
