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.

According to the Understanding & Using Time Travel documentation, Time Travel is a feature that allows you to query, clone, and restore historical data in tables, schemas, and databases for up to 90 days. To meet the requirements of the scenario, the following best practices should be followed:

•The fact and dimension tables should have the same DATA_RETENTION_TIME_IN_DAYS. This parameter specifies the number of days for which the historical data is preserved and can be accessed by Time Travel. To ensure that the fact and dimension tables can be reverted to a consistent state in case of any anomalies in the latest load, they should have the same retention period. Otherwise, some tables may lose their historical data before others, resulting in data inconsistency and quality issues.

•The fact and dimension tables should be cloned together using the same Time Travel options to reduce potential referential integrity issues with the restored data. Cloning is a way of creating a copy of an object (table, schema, or database) at a specific point in time using Time Travel. To ensure that the fact and dimension tables are cloned with the same data set, they should be cloned together using the same AT or BEFORE clause. This will avoid any referential integrity issues that may arise from cloning tables at different points in time.

The other options are incorrect because:

•Related data should not be placed together in the same schema. Facts and dimension tables should each have their own schemas. This is not a best practice for Time Travel, as it does not affect the ability to query, clone, or restore historical data. However, it may be a good practice for data modeling and organization, depending on the use case and design principles.

•The DATA_RETENTION_TIME_IN_DAYS should be kept at the account level and never used for lower level containers (databases and schemas). This is not a best practice for Time Travel, as it limits the flexibility and granularity of setting the retention period for different objects. The retention period can be set at the account, database, schema, or table level, and the most specific setting overrides the more general ones. This allows for customizing the retention period based on the data needs and characteristics of each object.

•Only TRANSIENT tables should be used to ensure referential integrity between the fact and dimension tables. This is not a best practice for Time Travel, as it does not affect the referential integrity between the tables. Transient tables are tables that do not have a Fail-safe period, which means that they cannot be recovered by Snowflake after the retention period ends. However, they still support Time Travel within the retention period, and can be queried, cloned, and restored like permanent tables. The choice of table type depends on the data durability and availability requirements, not on the referential integrity.

According to the Snowflake documentation1, the ORGADMIN role is a special system role that is responsible for managing operations at the organization level, such as creating and viewing accounts, enabling database replication, and setting global account parameters. The ACCOUNTADMIN role is a system role that is responsible for managing operations at the account level, such as creating and managing users, roles, warehouses, databases, and shares. Therefore, the commands that can be performed by the ORGADMIN role but not the ACCOUNTADMIN role are:

•SHOW ORGANIZATION ACCOUNTS: This command lists all the accounts in the organization and their properties, such as region, edition, and status2. The ACCOUNTADMIN role can only show the current account and its properties using the SHOW ACCOUNTS command3.

•SELECT SYSTEM$GLOBAL_ACCOUNT_SET_PARAMETER: This function sets a global account parameter for an account in the organization, such as enabling account database replication4. The ACCOUNTADMIN role can only set local account parameters using the ALTER ACCOUNT command.

Option A is incorrect because the SHOW REGIONS command can be executed by any role, not just the ORGADMIN role. Option B is incorrect because the SHOW USERS command can be executed by the ACCOUNTADMIN role, as well as any role that has been granted the MONITOR privilege on the account. Option D is incorrect because the GRANT ROLE ORGADMIN TO USER command can be executed by the ACCOUNTADMIN role, as well as any role that has been granted the ORGADMIN role1.
