QuestionQ40

Perform data sharing and use the Snowflake Marketplace

A large multinational company with numerous operating regions needs data to be shared bidirectionally among all offices: from the head office to regional offices and among regional offices themselves. The company holds a Snowflake account, with its European operations deployed in Microsoft Azure in a single region, while North American regional offices use AWS in a single region as their deployment cloud. This configuration is required to comply with Personal Identifiable Information (PII) regulations in certain European countries. The corporate head office is located in Europe.

How can the data be shared bidirectionally while MINIMIZING costs?

Explanation

Snowflake direct data sharing is appropriate for accounts in the same region because consumers access the provider’s shared data without additional replication. Sharing across continents and cloud platforms requires replication, so replicating only between the European Azure and North American AWS locations minimizes unnecessary replication cost while preserving the European PII-residency deployment.
