The following object in Snowflake is also known as the 'data dictionary' of a database.

A)  Data Catalog
B)  PUBLIC schema
C)  INFORMATION_SCHEMA schema
D)  None of the above

Correct Answer :   INFORMATION_SCHEMA schema


Explanation :

When you create a database in Snowflake, two schemas get automatically created within the database. 1. INFORMATION_SCHEMA schema and 2. PUBLIC schema.
 
INFORMATION_SCHEMA is a read-only schema. It contains only views. The views have all meta-data information about the database objects e.g., all tables of that database, all columns, all stages, all sequences etc. These views can be queried to retrieve meta-data information about the database. Hence, the INFORMATION_SCHEMA schema is also known as the data dictionary of a database.
