Snowflake ARA-C01 Dumps Questions Answers

For ingesting a large volume of CSV data into Snowflake using Snowpipe, especially for a substantial amount like 10 TB, theon error = SKIP_FILEoption in theCOPY INTOcommand can be highly effective. This approach allows Snowpipe to skip over files that cause errors during theingestion process, thereby not halting or significantly slowing down the overall data load. It helps in maintaining performance and cost-effectiveness by avoiding the reprocessing of problematic files and continuing with the ingestion of other data.

 A masking policy is a feature of Snowflake that allows masking sensitive data in query results based on the role of the user and the condition of the data. A masking policy can be applied to a column in a table or a view, and it can use another column in the sametable or view as a conditional column. A conditional column is a column that determines whether the masking policy is applied or not based on its value1.

In this case, the requirement can be met by using a masking policy on the username column with event_timestamp as a conditional column. The masking policy can use a function that masks the username if the event_timestamp is older than six months based on the current date, and returns the original username otherwise. The masking policy canbe applied to the user_events table, and it will also be applied when creating views using the table or cloning the table2.

The other options are not correct because:

• A. Using a masking policy on the username column using an entitlement table with valid dates would require creating another table that stores the valid dates for each username, and joining it with the user_events table in the masking policy function. This would add complexity and overhead to the masking policy, and it would not use the event_timestamp column as the condition for masking.
• B. Using a row level policy on the user_events table using an entitlement table with valid dates would require creating another table that stores the valid dates for each username, and joining it with the user_events table in the row access policy function. This would filter out the rows that have event_timestamp older than six months based on the valid dates, instead of masking the username column. This would not meet the requirement of masking the username, and it would also reduce the visibility of the event data.
• D. Using a secure view on the user_events table using a case statement on the username column would require creating a view that uses a case expression to mask the username column based on the event_timestamp column. This would meet the requirement of masking the username, but it would not be applied when cloning the table. A secure view is a view that prevents the underlying data from being exposed by queries on the view. However, a secure view does not prevent the underlying data from being exposed by cloning the table3.

• A pipe is a Snowflake object that continuously loads data from files in a stage (internal or external) into a table. A pipe can be configured to use auto-ingest, which means that Snowflake automatically detects new or modified files in the stage and loads them into the table without any manual intervention1.
• A pipe is the most cost-effective way to bring large numbers of small JSON files into a Snowflake table, because it minimizes the number of COPY commands executed and the number of micro-partitions created. A pipe can use file aggregation, which means that it can combine multiple small files into a single larger file before loading them into the table. This reduces the load time and the storage cost of the data2.
• An external table is a Snowflake object that references data files stored in an external location, such as Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure Blob Storage. An external table does not store the data in Snowflake, but only provides a view of the data for querying. An external table is not a cost-effective way to bring data into a Snowflake table, because it does not support file aggregation, and it requires additional network bandwidth and compute resources to query the external data3.
• A stream is a Snowflake object that records the history of changes (inserts, updates, and deletes) made to a table. A stream can be used to consume the changes from a table and apply them to another table or a task. A stream is not a way to bring data into a Snowflake table, but a way to process the data after it is loaded into a table4.
• A copy command is a Snowflake command that loads data from files in a stage into a table. A copy command can be executed manually or scheduled using a task. A copy command is not a cost-effective way to bring large numbers of small JSON files into a Snowflake table, because it does not support file aggregation, and it may create many micro-partitions that increase the storage cost of the data5.
