Snowflake Secure Data Sharing

CloudFactory uses Snowflake, so the easiest way to share datasets would be through a Snowflake to Snowflake secure data sharing.

Note

For more information on how secure data sharing works between provider and consumer accounts, refer to the following guide from Snowflake: Introduction to Secure Data Sharing.

Secure Data Sharing enables sharing selected objects in a database in your account with other Snowflake accounts. The following Snowflake database objects can be shared:

1. Tables

2. External tables

3. Secure views

4. Secure materialized views

5. Secure UDFs

Snowflake enables the sharing of databases through shares, which are created by data providers and “imported” by data consumers.

Important

All database objects shared between accounts are read-only (i.e. the objects cannot be modified or deleted, including adding or modifying table data).
