Which of the following is NOT one of the "higher editions" of Snowflake?

  1. Enterprise for Sensitive Data

  2. Business

  3. Virtual Private Snowflake

  4. Enterprise

The correct answer is: Business

The designation of "higher editions" of Snowflake typically refers to the levels of service that offer enhanced features and capabilities suitable for more complex data workloads and security requirements. The Business and Enterprise editions, including Enterprise for Sensitive Data and Virtual Private Snowflake, are designed with additional functionalities intended for enterprises with more rigorous data governance and compliance needs. The Business edition, while having a more robust feature set than the Standard edition, is not considered a "higher edition" compared to Enterprise or the other specialized editions. Higher editions provide advanced capabilities such as enhanced security features, increased scaling options, and specific tools for handling sensitive data or dedicated environments. Hence, the Business edition is positioned as a standard option rather than a higher-tier edition.
