Micro-partitions, huh? I guess that's where Snowflake stores all their snowballs for the winter.

Wait, Tri-Secret Secure? That sounds like something out of a spy movie. Do I need to wear a tuxedo to activate it?

I bet the answer is the table level (TMK). I mean, why else would they give us that option? It's gotta be a trick question or something.

I agree with you, it seems like a trick question.

Ha! The root level (HSM)? That's just silly. As if Snowflake would let us manage the keys all the way up there. Clearly, it's the account level (AMK).

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Wasn't there something about micro-partitions in the question? Maybe it's at that level? I'll have to double-check the documentation.

Definitely the account level (AMK) - that's where the customer-managed key is used in the Tri-Secret Secure encryption model. Anything else would just be plain wrong.

I agree, using the customer-managed key at the account level provides a good balance of security and accessibility.
