According to the Snowflake documentation1, a standard listing is a type of listing that provides free access to the full data product, with no payment required. A standard listing can be added and queried immediately by the consumer, as long as they accept the terms and conditions of the listing. A monetized listing is a type of listing that charges for access to the data product, using the pricing models offered by Snowflake. A monetized listing requires the consumer to provide payment information and agree to the billing terms before accessing the data product. A regional listing is not a type of listing, but a way to specify the regions where the listing is available. A personalized listing is a type of listing that provides limited trial access to the data product, with unlimited access to the full data product available upon request. A personalized listing requires the consumer to request access from the provider and wait for the provider to grant access before accessing the data product. Therefore, the only type of listing that can be added and queried immediately is the standard listing.

According to the Snowflake Warehouse Cost Optimization blog post, one of the strategies to reduce the cost of running a warehouse is to use a multi-cluster warehouse with auto-scaling enabled. This allows the warehouse to automatically adjust the number of clusters based on the concurrency demand and the queue size. A multi-cluster warehouse can also be configured with a minimum and maximum number of clusters, as well as a scaling policy to control the scaling behavior. This way, the warehouse can handle the parallel load queries efficiently without wasting resources or credits. The blog post also suggests using a smaller warehouse size, such as SMALL or XSMALL, for loading data, as it can perform better than a larger warehouse size for small INSERTs. Therefore, the best option to reduce the costs while minimizing the overall load times for migrating data warehouse history is to keep the warehouse as a SMALL or XSMALL and configure it as a multi-cluster warehouse to handle the parallel load queries. The other options are incorrect because:

•A. Deploying another 2XL warehouse to handle a portion of the load queries will not reduce the costs, but increase them. It will also introduce complexity and potential inconsistency in managing the data loading process across multiple warehouses.

•B. Changing the 2XL warehouse to 4XL will not reduce the costs, but increase them. It will also provide more compute resources than needed for small INSERTs, which are not CPU-intensive but I/O-intensive.

•D. Converting the INSERTs to several tables will not reduce the costs, but increase them. It will also create unnecessary data duplication and fragmentation, which will affect the query performance and data quality.

Option B is the correct SQL command to create a resource monitor that meets the requirements. It sets the credit quota to 3000, the frequency to yearly, the start timestamp to January 1, 2022, and the triggers to notify and suspend the warehouse at the specified thresholds. Option A is incorrect because it does not specify the frequency. Option C is incorrect because it does not specify the frequency and it uses notify and suspend instead of suspend and suspend_immediate. Option D is incorrect because it does not specify the start timestamp. For more information about resource monitors, see Working with Resource Monitors and CREATE RESOURCE MONITOR.
