Snowflake COF-C02 Based on Real Exam Environment

 The COPY INTO command in Snowflake can be configured to output data into a single file by setting the MAX_FILE_NUMBER option to 1. This option limits the number of files generated by the command, ensuring that only one file is created regardless of the amount of data being exported.

 When a query in Snowflake is too large to fit into the available memory, it will start spilling to remote storage. This is an indication that the memory allocated for the query is insufficient for its execution, and as a result, Snowflake uses remote disk storage to handle the overflow. This spill to remote storage can lead to slower query performance due to the additional I/O operations required.

The correct command to view all roles granted to a specific user in Snowflake is SHOW GRANTS TO USER ;. This command lists all access control privileges that have been explicitly granted to the specified user. References: SHOW GRANTS | Snowflake Documentation

 Materialized Views in Snowflake are designed to store the result of a query and can be refreshed to maintain up-to-date data. However, they have certain limitations, one of which is that they cannot be defined using a JOIN clause. This means that a Materialized View can only be created based on a single source table and cannot combine data from multiple tables using JOIN operations.
