Explanation
Direct Share allows a Snowflake provider account to create a share object and explicitly add one or more consumer accounts to it. The provider controls and manages which accounts are granted access by adding or removing accounts from the share at any time - effectively managing a curated group of accounts. Free listings and Paid listings are discovery-based options on the Snowflake Marketplace (public or semi-public), and a Data Exchange is a separate private hub concept. Direct Share is the mechanism for tightly controlled, account-level sharing with a specific group.
