Explanation

A Reader Account (formerly known as a 'read-only account') is a special type of Snowflake account created and managed by a data provider specifically for consumers who do not have their own Snowflake account. Reader accounts are provisioned by the provider, and the consumer can only query shared data - they cannot load their own data or create their own objects. The provider is billed for compute used by the reader account.
