Exam GES-C01 Topic 1 Question 218 Discussion

Option A is correct because the CORTEX_ENABLED_CROSS_REGION account parameter is used to enable cross-region inference. Setting it CORTEX_ENABLED_CROSS_REGION would permit inference requests to be processed in any AWS US region, such as N. Virginia, from a local AWS US region like Ohio. to 'Aws us' Option B is incorrect because user inputs, service generated prompts, and outputs are explicitly not stored or cached during cross-region inference. Option C is incorrect as cross-region inference is not supported in U.S. SnowGov regions for either inbound or outbound inference requests. Option D is correct because the sources indicate that AI COMPLETE (llama4-maverick) is natively available in AWS US East 1 (N. Virginia) and is supported for cross-region inference within AWS US regions, making it a valid target for the account in US East (Ohio). Option E is incorrect because latency between regions depends on the cloud provider infrastructure and network status, and Snowflake recommends testing specific use cases with cross-region inference enabled.
