Data Infrastructures with Snowflake Competency (Intermediate Level)
- 25m
- 25 questions
The Data Infrastructures with Snowflake Competency (Intermediate Level) benchmark measures your ability to recall and recognize how to utilize Time Travel and Fail-safe in Snowflake, install and configure SnowSQL, define and use variables, and utilize SnowSQL features. You will be evaluated on your ability to differentiate internal and external stages, load data using the classic Snowflake UI, and integrate Snowflake with Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, and S3. You will also be evaluated on your skills in unloading data from Snowflake to different types of internal storage, querying staged files directly into Snowflake tables, and optimizing query performance. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the ability to work on Snowflake with minimal supervision.
