According to the Snowflake documentation1, a multi-cluster warehouse is a virtual warehouse that consists of multiple clusters of compute resources that can scale up or down automatically to handle the concurrency and performance needs of the queries submitted to the warehouse. A multi-cluster warehouse has a minimum and maximum number of clusters that can be specified by the administrator. Option A is a possible solution to address the issues happening once a month, as it allows the administrator to use a task to increase the cluster size for the time period that the more complex queries are running and another task to reduce the size of the cluster once the complex queries complete. This way, the warehouse can have more resources available to handle the complex queries without reaching the maximum limit of 10 clusters, and then return to the normal cluster size to save costs. Option B is another possible solution to address the issues happening once a month, as it allows the administrator to have the group running the complex monthly queries use a separate appropriately-sized warehouse to support their workload. This way, the warehouse can isolate the complex queries from the standard workload and avoid queue time and resource contention. Option C is not a recommended solution to address the issues happening once a month, as it would increase the costs and complexity of managing the multi-cluster warehouse, and may not solve the underlying problem of inefficient queries. Option D is a good practice to improve the performance of the queries, but it is not a direct solution to address the issues happening once a month, as it requires analyzing and optimizing the complex queries using clustering keys or materialized views, which may not be feasible or effective in all cases. Option E is not a recommended solution to address the issues happening once a month, as it would increase the costs and waste resources by starting more clusters than needed for the standard workload.

According to the Network Policies documentation, a network policy can be applied to an account, a security integration, or a user. If there are network policies applied to more than one of these, the most specific network policy overrides more general network policies. The following summarizes the order of precedence:

•Account: Network policies applied to an account are the most general network policies. They are overridden by network policies applied to a security integration or user.

•Security Integration: Network policies applied to a security integration override network policies applied to the account, but are overridden by a network policy applied to a user.

•User: Network policies applied to a user are the most specific network policies. They override both accounts and security integrations.

Therefore, if both the account_level and user_level network policies are defined, the user_level policy will take effect and the account_level policy will be ignored. The other options are incorrect because:

•The account_level policy will not override the user_level policy, as explained above.

•The user_level network policies will be supported, as they are part of the network policy feature.

•A network policy error will not be generated, as there is no conflict between the account_level and user_level network policies.

According to the Snowflake documentation1, resource monitors are a feature that helps you manage and control Snowflake costs by monitoring and setting limits on your compute resources. Resource monitors do not consume any credits or add any load to the virtual warehouses they monitor1. Resource monitors can also have multiple triggers that specify different actions (such as suspending or notifying) when certain percentages of the credit quota are reached2. Resource monitors can be applied to either the entire account or a specific set of individual warehouses1. The other options are not benefits of resource monitors. The cost of running a resource monitor is negligible, not 10% of a credit3. Multiple resource monitors cannot be applied to a single virtual warehouse; only one resource monitor can be assigned to a warehouse at a time2. Resource monitor governance is not tightly controlled; account administrators can enable users with other roles to view and modify resource monitors using SQL2.
