COF-C03: SnowPro Core Certification

Cortex Analyst is the Snowflake Cortex feature built to let business users interact with structured data using natural language. It translates plain-language questions into SQL queries against tables (via a semantic model) and returns the results automatically, requiring no manual SQL writing — which fits the need to answer questions like customer churn by plan directly from structured customer and plan tables. Cortex Search instead provides semantic/hybrid search over unstructured text data, AI_PARSE_DOCUMENT extracts text/structure from documents such as PDFs, and Cortex Fine-tuning is used to customize large language models, none of which address ad hoc natural-language querying of structured tables.
