ADA-C01 Exam Dumps : SnowPro Advanced Administrator

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.

•Option A is correct because the ALTER DATABASE … ENABLE REPLICATION TO ACCOUNTS command must be issued from the primary account that owns the database to be replicated1.

•Option B is incorrect because users must be granted REPLICATIONGRANTER privileges in order to enable replication1.

•Option C is incorrect because to start replication, the ALTER DATABASE … REFRESH command must be run on the primary database, not the secondary database1.

•Option D is incorrect because replication can occur across different cloud providers, as well as across regions2.

•Option E is correct because databases created from shares can be replicated, as long as the share is active and the database is not dropped or altered1.

•Option F is correct because users can have unlimited primary databases and they can be replicated to an unlimited number of accounts if all accounts are within the same organization1.

According to the Snowflake documentation1, organizations are a feature that allows linking the accounts owned by a business entity, simplifying account management and billing, replication and failover, data sharing, and other account administration tasks. Some of the benefits of using organizations are:

•Administrators can monitor and understand usage across all accounts in the organization using the ORGANIZATION_USAGE schema, which provides historical usage data for all accounts in the organization via views in a shared database named SNOWFLAKE2. This can help to optimize costs and performance across the organization.

•Administrators have the ability to create accounts in any available cloud provider or region using the CREATE ACCOUNT command, which allows specifying the cloud platform and region for the new account3. This can help to meet the business needs and compliance requirements of the organization.

Option A is incorrect because administrators cannot change Snowflake account editions on-demand based on need, but rather have to contact Snowflake Support to request an edition change4. Option C is incorrect because administrators cannot simplify data movement across all accounts within the organization, but rather have to enable account database replication for both the source and target accounts, and use the ALTER DATABASE … ENABLE REPLICATION TO ACCOUNTS command to promote a local database to serve as the primary database and enable replication to the target accounts5. Option D is incorrect because user administration is not simplified across all accounts within the organization, but rather requires creating and managing users, roles, and privileges for each account separately, unless using a federated authentication method such as SSO or SCIM.
