Which Snowflake architecture recommendation needs multiple Snowflake accounts for implementation?

AEnable a disaster recovery strategy across multiple cloud providers.

BCreate external stages pointing to cloud providers and regions other than the region hosting the Snowflake account.

CEnable zero-copy cloning among the development, test, and production environments.

DEnable separation of the development, test, and production environments.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The Snowflake architecture recommendation that necessitates multiple Snowflake accounts for implementation is the separation of development, test, and production environments. This approach, known as Account per Tenant (APT), isolates tenants into separate Snowflake accounts, ensuring dedicated resources and security isolation12.

Reference

* Snowflake's white paper on ''Design Patterns for Building Multi-Tenant Applications on Snowflake'' discusses the APT model and its requirement for separate Snowflake accounts for each tenant1.

* Snowflake Documentation on Secure Data Sharing, which mentions the possibility of sharing data across multiple accounts3.

I feel like zero-copy cloning is more about managing environments within a single account, so I don't think it's C.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think external stages might require multiple accounts too, so maybe it's B?

I think it might be option A, but I'm not entirely sure. We talked about disaster recovery needing multiple accounts in class.

I'm a bit confused by this question. All the options seem related to Snowflake architecture, but I'm not sure which one specifically requires multiple accounts. I'll have to review my notes and come back to this one.

Okay, I've got this. The key is that the question is asking about a Snowflake architecture recommendation that requires multiple accounts. Based on that, I'm going with B - creating external stages in different cloud providers and regions.
