Which SQL statement will require a virtual warehouse to run?
Correct Answer:C
A virtual warehouse in Snowflake is used to perform data processing tasks that require computational resources, such as queries that modify data or perform significant computation. Of the options provided:
✑ C. INSERT INTO TBL_EMPLOYEE(EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, EMP_SALARY,
DEPT) VALUES(1,'Adam',20000,'Finance');This SQL statement performs a data modification operation (DML) by inserting a new record into theTBL_EMPLOYEEtable, which requires computational resources provided by a virtual warehouse to execute.

Which statement accurately describes Snowflake's architecture?
Correct Answer:C
Snowflake's architecture is unique in that it combines elements of both traditional shared-disk and shared-nothing database architectures. This hybrid approach allows Snowflake to offer the scalability and performance benefits of a shared-nothing architecture (with compute and storage separated) while maintaining the simplicity and flexibility of a shared-disk architecture in managing data across all nodes in the system. This results in an architecture that provides on-demand scalability, both vertically and horizontally, without sacrificing performance or data cohesion.
