Snowflake Replication and Failover

Features that replicate Snowflake databases and account objects to other regions or clouds, with failover groups and client redirect for continuity.

Definition

Replication groups and failover groups replicate databases, users, roles, warehouses and more. Failover and client redirect (connection URLs) require Business Critical Edition. Replication also enables cross-region data sharing.

Exam tip

Cross-region data sharing first requires replicating the database to the consumer's region (or using auto-fulfillment).
