SnowPro Core Certification — Question 1170

A data provider needs to securely collaborate with data consumers who do not reside in the same region.

What Snowflake sharing mechanism should be used?

Answer options

• A. Direct share
• B. Data Exchange
• C. Data replication
• D. Listing

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Data Exchange, which allows secure sharing of data across different regions while maintaining compliance and security. Direct share is limited to sharing data within the same region, while data replication refers to duplicating data rather than sharing it. Listing is a method for organizing shared data but does not directly facilitate secure collaboration.
