[All ARA-R01 Questions]

An Architect would like to save quarter-end financial results for the previous six years.

Which Snowflake feature can the Architect use to accomplish this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Zero-copy cloning is a Snowflake feature that can be used to save quarter-end financial results for the previous six years. Zero-copy cloning allows creating a copy of a database, schema, table, or view without duplicating the data or metadata. The clone shares the same data files as the original object, but tracks any changes made to the clone or the original separately. Zero-copy cloning can be used to create snapshots of data at different points in time, such as quarter-end financial results, and preserve them for future analysis or comparison.Zero-copy cloning is fast, efficient, and does not consume any additional storage space unless the data is modified1.

But Materialized views don’t store historical data like Time Travel does.

I practiced a similar question, and I think Secure views are more about data security than saving historical results.

I feel like Materialized views could be relevant, but they seem more focused on performance rather than historical data retention.

I'm a little confused on this one. I know Snowflake has a lot of cool features, but I'm not totally sure which one would be best for saving historical financial data. I'll have to review the options carefully and try to reason through the best approach.

Okay, let me walk through this step-by-step. We need to save past financial data, so the key is finding a feature that allows access to historical information. I'm leaning towards C) Time Travel, but I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.
