QuestionQ119

Secure Data Sharing and Consumption

A company needs to share selected product and sales tables with partners worldwide. The partners are not Snowflake customers, but they do have AWS access.

The data-sharing model has these requirements:

  1. Access to data must be governed.
  2. Each partner must have access only to data from its own region.

What is the MOST secure and cost-effective method for the company to share data with its partners?

Explanation

Snowflake reader accounts allow a provider to share data with consumers that are not Snowflake customers. Custom secure views provide governed, granular filtering so each reader account can be restricted to its respective regional data while protecting the underlying tables and business logic. Secure Data Sharing avoids copying data, unlike exports to Amazon S3.
