SnowPro Core Certification — Question 283

What happens to historical data when the retention period for an object ends?

Answer options

• A. The data is cloned into a historical object.
• B. The data moves to Fail-safe
• C. Time Travel on the historical data is dropped.
• D. The object containing the historical data is dropped.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as the data transitions to Fail-safe after the retention period expires, allowing for recovery before permanent deletion. Options A and C are incorrect because they suggest actions that do not occur, and D is misleading since the object is not dropped immediately but rather goes into a Fail-safe state.
