Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

According to the SnowPro Advanced: Architect documents and learning resources, the requirement to allow data sharing between two companies that are not on the same cloud platform is to set up data replication to the region and cloud platform where the consumer resides. Data replication is a feature of Snowflake that enables copying databases across accounts in different regions and cloud platforms. Data replication allows data providers to securely share data with data consumers across different regions and cloud platforms by creating a replica database in the consumer's account. The replica database is read-only and automatically synchronized with the primary database in the provider's account.Data replication is useful for scenarios where data sharing is not possible or desirable due to latency, compliance, or security reasons1. The other options are incorrect because they are not required or feasible to allow data sharing between two companies that are not on the same cloud platform. Option A is incorrect because creating a pipeline to write shared data to a cloud storage location in the target cloud provider is not a secure or efficient way of sharing data. It would require additional steps to load the data from the cloud storage to the consumer's account, and it would not leverage the benefits of Snowflake's data sharing features. Option B is incorrect because ensuring that all views are persisted is not relevant for data sharing across cloud platforms. Views can be shared across cloud platforms as long as they reference objects in the same database.Persisting views is an option to improve the performance of querying views, but it is not required for data sharing2. Option D is incorrect because Company A and Company B do not need to agree to use a single cloud platform.Data sharing is possible across different cloud platforms using data replication or other methods, such as listings or auto-fulfillment3.Reference:Replicating Databases Across Multiple Accounts | Snowflake Documentation,Persisting Views | Snowflake Documentation,Sharing Data Across Regions and Cloud Platforms | Snowflake Documentation

I remember reading that data sharing can be tricky across different cloud platforms, but I can't recall if they really need to agree on a single provider as mentioned in option D.

I think option C sounds familiar because we discussed data replication in our last class, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the only requirement.
