Does a customer need a preexisting account with AWS or Azure to create a Snowflake account?

Yes
No
Only for AWS users
Only for Azure users

The correct answer is: No

To create a Snowflake account, a customer does not need a preexisting account with AWS or Azure. Snowflake operates as a standalone cloud-based data warehousing service that can be provisioned independently of the underlying cloud platforms. This means that users can sign up for Snowflake directly and create their accounts without already having an account on AWS or Azure. It's important to recognize that while Snowflake is available on these cloud providers and integrates seamlessly with their services, the creation of a Snowflake account does not impose the requirement of having a preexisting account with those platforms. This independence allows users to start using Snowflake for data warehousing and analytics without the overhead of managing another cloud service account beforehand.
