ARA-R01 Exam Dumps : SnowPro Advanced: Architect Recertification Exam

The requirements state that the data analysts need to be able to create and modify database objects and load data, but should not be able to manage access for users outside of their role.

Option C: By making each schema within the database a managed access schema and having them owned by SYSADMIN, the ability to grant privileges on the schema's objects is strictly controlled. Managed access schemas limit the granting of privileges to the role specified as the owner of the schema, in this case, SYSADMIN. The ANALYST_ROLE can be granted the privileges necessary to create and modify objects within these schemas, satisfying the requirement for the analysts to perform their tasks without being able to extend access beyond their role.

The Snowpipe REST API provides two endpoints for retrieving the data load history: insertReport and loadHistoryScan. The insertReport endpoint returns the status of the files that were submitted to the insertFiles endpoint, while the loadHistoryScan endpoint returns the history of the files that were actually loaded into the table by Snowpipe. To keep a log of data load history, it is recommended to use the loadHistoryScan endpoint, which provides more accurate and complete information about the data ingestion process. The loadHistoryScan endpoint accepts a start time and an end time as parameters, and returns the files that were loaded within that time range. The maximum time range that can be specified is 15 minutes, and the maximum number of files that can be returned is 10,000. Therefore, to keep a log of data load history, the best option is to call the loadHistoryScan endpoint every 10 minutes for a 15-minute time range, and store the results in a log file or a table. This way, the log will capture all the files that were loaded by Snowpipe, and avoid any gaps or overlaps in the time range. The other options are incorrect because:

• Calling insertReport every 20 minutes, fetching the last 10,000 entries, will not provide a complete log of data load history, as some files may be missed or duplicated due to the asynchronous nature of Snowpipe. Moreover, insertReport only returns the status of the files that were submitted, not the files that were loaded.
• Calling loadHistoryScan every minute for the maximum time range will result in too many API calls and unnecessary overhead, as the same files will be returned multiple times. Moreover, the maximum time range is 15 minutes, not 1 minute.
• Calling insertReport every 8 minutes for a 10-minute time range will suffer from the same problems as option A, and also create gaps or overlaps in the time range.

The correct way to securely share data with a vendor using a Snowflake account on a different cloud platform and region is to create a share, add objects to the share, and add a consumer account to the share for the vendor to access. This way, the company can control what data is shared, who can access it, and how long the share is valid. The vendor can then query the shared data without copying or moving it to their own account. The other options are either incorrect or inefficient, as they involve creating unnecessary reader accounts, users, roles, or database replication.
