This course is organized into several sections. Each section focuses on a particular area related to the exam. As we progress through this course, we will first go through a very important section covering Snowflake’s architecture. Once we have understood the architectural and foundational basis of Snowflake, we will explore user interfaces & connectivity options to understand how we can connect to our Snowflake instance and which tools can we use. Continuing in a logical manner we will then have a series of sections covering data loading into Snowflake, processing of semi-structured and unstructured data, and the data pipelines in Snowflake. Then we will cover some features unique to Snowflake such as Failsafe, Time Travel, Zero copy cloning, and data sharing. We then look into performance optimization techniques, and management of account costs through resource monitors before embarking on our second last section on Security.

 

Towards the end of each section, we have lectures that summarize the learnings of the section and finally a quiz to test and reinforce your knowledge.

 

The final section that you wouldn’t want to miss is the Practice Exam which will test your knowledge of the concepts learned in this course. The practice exam included in this course is not a guarantee of exam success but it will give you a fair assessment of your preparedness.

SnowPro Core certification is at the foundation level and is a pre-requisite for other advanced certifications such as data engineering, administration, and data science certification.
