Sample Questions — Snowflake SnowPro Core (COF-C03) - 340 Questions

5 free sample questions from this practice exam. Correct answers are highlighted.

1. A company is evaluating Snowflake for its cloud data platform. Which architectural layer is responsible for storing the actual table data in a compressed, columnar format?

A Database storage layer ✓ Correct
B Query processing layer
C Cloud services layer
D Networking layer

2. A retail company stores its raw sales data in Amazon S3 and wants to query it directly from Snowflake without loading it into Snowflake-managed storage. Which Snowflake feature should the data engineer use?

A Create an external table pointing to an external stage backed by the S3 bucket ✓ Correct
B Create an internal table and use COPY INTO to load the data from S3
C Create a materialized view over the S3 data
D Create a dynamic table that reads from the S3 bucket directly

A Database storage layer
B Query processing layer
C Cloud services layer ✓ Correct
D Data integration layer

4. A data team frequently runs an expensive aggregation query joining three large tables. The query results rarely change but are needed by hundreds of users throughout the day. Which Snowflake object will reduce compute costs and improve query latency for this use case?

A Create a regular view that encapsulates the three-table join
B Create a materialized view that precomputes the aggregation ✓ Correct
C Create an external table referencing the base tables
D Create a dynamic table with a lag target of one hour

5. An architect is designing a Snowflake deployment and wants to ensure that scaling compute resources does not require migrating or copying storage data. Which core Snowflake architectural principle enables this?

A Columnar compression
B Separation of storage and compute ✓ Correct
C Micro-partitioning
D Automatic clustering
