What capabilities do Snowflake's Resource Monitors possess?

  1. Only impose limits on credit consumption

  2. Trigger actions when credit limits are reached

  3. Must be created by an ACCOUNTADMIN

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

Snowflake's Resource Monitors are designed to help manage and oversee resource consumption, specifically regarding usage credits. One of their primary functions is to impose limits on credit consumption, which allows organizations to maintain control over their cloud spending. When these credit limits are reached, Resource Monitors can trigger various actions to help manage this consumption—such as sending alerts or suspending additional workloads to prevent excess usage. Resource Monitors must be created by an ACCOUNTADMIN, ensuring that only those with the highest level of access can set these limits and configurations, thus providing an additional layer of control and security. All of these capabilities work together to provide a comprehensive framework for managing resource use in Snowflake, making option D the most accurate representation of what Resource Monitors can do.
