In Snowflake's secure data sharing model, when a data consumer queries shared data from their own account, they only incur compute charges (virtual warehouse usage costs). The data provider bears all storage costs for the shared data, and there are no data egress charges or additional cloud service fees for the consumer. This is a fundamental principle of Snowflake's data sharing architecture where storage costs remain with the provider while compute costs are incurred by the consumer based on their usage. The community discussion shows 100% consensus on option B, with references to Snowflake documentation confirming that consumers only pay for compute resources used to query shared data.
