SnowPro Core Certification — Question 5

Which of the following statements are true of Snowflake releases: (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. They happen approximately weekly
• B. They roll up and release approximately monthly, but customers can request early release application
• C. During a release, new customer requests/queries/connections transparently move over to the newer version
• D. A customer is assigned a 30 minute window (that can be moved anytime within a week) during which the system will be unavailable and customer is upgraded

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Option A is correct as Snowflake releases are indeed frequent, happening approximately weekly. Option C is also correct since new requests transition seamlessly to the new version during a release. Options B and D are incorrect because the frequency of releases is not monthly, and the upgrade process does not involve a fixed unavailability window for customers.
