Selected Answer: C
Snowflake supports creating temporary tables for storing non-permanent, transitory data (e.g. ETL data, session-specific data). Temporary tables only exist within the session in which they were created and persist only for the remainder of the session. As such, they are not visible to other users or sessions. Once the session ends, data stored in the table is purged completely from the system and, therefore, is not recoverable, either by the user who created the table or Snowflake.

Definitely Transient as ETL jobs may require you to NOT lose any data after a session.

My understanding is Transient will be the more suitable answer as this table will be used during the ETL operations on the contrary Temp tables are session-oriented and used for temporary purposes although Transient tables reside and are available after ETL ops and as they are not fail-safe and 0-1 day of time-travel so quite economical then Permamanet

It's D, not C. The question tells us about ETL. You are using Transient with ETL not Temporary, and the cost will be be also reduce with Transient
