The Data Infrastructures with Snowflake Mastery (Expert Level) benchmark measures your ability to work with continuous and semi-structured data, perform advanced analytics in Snowflake, and manage a Snowflake account. You will be evaluated on your ability to perform load operations for JSON data, configure parameters and security in Snowflake, and set up a secure share of Snowflake objects between two accounts. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to work on advanced analytics projects using Snowflake without any supervision.
