Do you have to pay to export data out of Snowflake? Yes. They have a nice guide on how to spend money doing it (https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/data-unload-overvie...).

Do you have to pay to export data out of Databricks? No, it's already sitting where you want it.

Which one is open? I wonder

I used Snowflake in my previous company. When we loaded data into Snowflake, we loaded it FROM S3/Blob where we also kept it.

So you were paying to store the same data twice. Once in S3 and once in Snowflake. Why not just purge it from S3 and only keep it in Snowflake?
