QuestionQ45

VerifiedIngest and Process Data

A company that uses Snowflake works with a third party that supplies economic data. The third-party provider recently migrated its data to Snowflake.

How can the company access the third-party data in Snowflake with the LEAST operational overhead?

Explanation

A direct Snowflake share allows a provider to grant selected database objects to a specific consumer account. The consumer can create an imported database and query the shared data in its own account, with changes made available without copying or replicating the data. This avoids the additional publication/request workflow of a Marketplace listing and the maintenance required for replication.
