  • B False
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: B

Explanation

You can use any virtual warehouse to access the data. Snowflake stores data in a shared manner, like in shared-disk architecture. But it also allows for using several compute engines, each with its own memory and processing capabilities. The virtual warehouses are independent of each other but access and process the same shared data. https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/intro-key-concepts#snowflake-architecture
