The REVOKE ROLE command is used to remove a role from another role or a user in Snowflake. This command is part of Snowflake's role-based access control system, allowing administrators to manage permissions and access to database objects efficiently by adding or removing roles from users or other roles.

Temporary tables in Snowflake do not consume storage costs. They are designed for transient data that is needed only for the duration of a session. Data stored in temporary tables is held in the virtual warehouse's cache and does not persist beyond the session's lifetime, thereby not incurring any storage charges.

To easily transfer data from a production account to a non-production account in Snowflake within the same cloud provider region, creating a data share is the most efficient approach. Data sharing allows for live, read-only access to selected data objects from the production account to the non-production account without the need to duplicate or move the actual data. This method facilitates seamless access to the data for development, testing, or analytics purposes in the non-production environment.

Object Name Resolution: When unqualified object names (e.g., table name without schema) are used in a UDF, Snowflake follows a specific hierarchy to resolve them. Here's the order:

Current Schema: Snowflake first checks if an object with the given name exists in the schema currently in use for the session.

PUBLIC Schema: If the object isn't found in the current schema, Snowflake looks in the PUBLIC schema of the current database.

Note: The SEARCH_PATH parameter influences object resolution for queries, not within UDFs.
