In Snowflake, a Share is the object that contains all the information required to share a database with other Snowflake accounts. Shares are used to securely share data stored in Snowflake tables and views, enabling data providers to grant data consumers access to their datasets without duplicating data. When a database is shared, it can include one or more schemas, and each schema can contain tables, views, or both.
