Explanation

In Snowflake, tables represent a logical structure through which users interact with the stored data. The actual physical data is stored in micro-partitions managed by Snowflake, and the logical table structure provides the means by which SQL operations are mapped to this data. This architecture allows Snowflake to optimize storage and querying across its distributed, cloud- based data storage system.
