SnowPro Core Certification — Question 808

Which Snowflake object does not consume any storage costs?

Answer options

• A. Secure view
• B. Materialized view
• C. Temporary table
• D. Transient table

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A Secure view does not consume storage costs as it does not store data physically, but rather provides a way to access the underlying data securely. In contrast, Materialized views, Temporary tables, and Transient tables all consume storage because they store data in a physical format, which incurs costs based on the amount of data stored.
