Snowflake SnowPro Certification Practice Test

Is there a limit to the objects that can be contained in a schema?

1. Yes, a schema can only contain 100 objects

2. No, there’s no limit to objects in a schema

3. It cannot exceed 1000 objects

4. It depends on the edition of Snowflake used

The correct answer is: No, there’s no limit to objects in a schema

A schema in Snowflake is designed to hold an extensive range of objects such as tables, views, and functions, among others. The absence of a limit on the number of objects that can be stored within a schema allows for flexibility in data organization and management. It fosters an environment where users can define their database structures without the concern of reaching a cap. This extensive capacity enables data engineers and analysts to efficiently manage their data assets, supporting both operational tasks and analytical workloads seamlessly. In contrast, certain options suggest arbitrary limits, which do not align with the flexible design of Snowflake's architecture. Others hint at edition-based restrictions that do not apply to the fundamental design of schemas in Snowflake, allowing it to cater to various use cases without hierarchical constraints.
