ADA-C01 Exam Dumps - Snowflake Certification Questions and Answers

According to the web search results from my predefined tool search_web, one of the factors that affects the reuse of persisted query results is the exact match of the query syntax1. If the query contains functions that return different values for successive runs, such as CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, then the query will not match the previous query and will not benefit from the cache. To avoid this, the query should use functions that return consistent values for the same day, such as CURRENT_DATE, which returns the current date without the time component2. Option A is incorrect because wrapping the query in a UDF does not guarantee the syntax match, as the UDF may also contain dynamic functions. Option B is incorrect because the virtual warehouse does not affect the persisted query results, which are stored at the account level1. Option C is incorrect because the security role does not affect the persisted query results, as long as the role has the necessary privileges to access the tables and views used in the query1.

This command will generate a sample of 20% of the table by using the SYSTEM (or BLOCK) sampling method, which selects each block of rows with a probability of 20/100. This method is suitable for taking data by blocks of rows, as the question requires. According to the Snowflake documentation, “SYSTEM (or BLOCK): Includes each block of rows with a probability of p/100. Similar to flipping a weighted coin for each block of rows. This method does not support fixed-size sampling.” The other options are either incorrect or do not meet the requirements of the question. Option A uses the BERNOULLI (or ROW) sampling method, which selects each row with a probability of 20/100, but does not take data by blocks of rows. Option C uses the BLOCK sampling method, but specifies a fixed number of rows (20) instead of a percentage (20%). Option D uses the SYSTEM sampling method, but specifies a seed value (1), which makes the sampling repeatable, contrary to the question.

The REFRESH DATABASE command is used to refresh a secondary database with the latest data and metadata from the primary database1. The command must be executed in the target account where the secondary database resides2. Therefore, the answer is A, as the location is AWS_WEST and the command is REFRESH DATABASE PROD_AWS_WEST REFRESH. The other options are incorrect because they either use the wrong location, the wrong command, or the wrong database name.
