True or False: Snowflake allows cloning of accounts for data sharing.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only for development purposes

  4. Only for read access

The correct answer is: False

Snowflake does not support the cloning of entire accounts for data sharing, making the statement false. Cloning in Snowflake is primarily a feature used for creating instant, independent copies of databases, schemas, or tables. This allows users to create a version of their data that can be modified without affecting the original dataset. While data sharing is a powerful capability of Snowflake that enables users to share data across different accounts without the need for data duplication, it does not extend to cloning the accounts themselves. Therefore, the correct response reflects the limitations of Snowflake's cloning feature in relation to account-level data sharing. Other answer options suggest specific conditions or applications for cloning accounts that do not align with Snowflake's functionality, reinforcing that the cloning feature is not applicable to account sharing.
