SOL-C01 Question #304: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

You are developing a data pipeline in Snowflake Notebooks. One cell contains Python code that uses the Snowpark DataFrame API to perform several data transformations. After executing the cell, you observe that the execution status is 'Canceled'. What are the possible causes for this status, and how can you diagnose the issue?

Options

• AThe user manually canceled the cell execution using the Notebook interface.
• BThe Snowflake warehouse was suspended due to inactivity, interrupting the Snowpark DataFrame
• CAn error occurred during the Snowpark DataFrame operations, triggering an automatic
• DThe Notebook environment encountered a memory error due to the size of the Snowpark
• EA Snowflake administrator terminated the query associated with the Snowpark session.

Explanation

A 'Canceled' status indicates an intentional or forced termination. Manual cancellation (A) is the most straightforward cause. Warehouse suspension (B) will interrupt execution. A Snowflake admin can terminate queries (E). Error in Snowpark DataFrame execution (C) typically results in a failed status with an error message. Memory errors (D) could lead to a failure, but cancellation is less likely unless explicitly triggered within the code.
