Which Snowflake edition enables data sharing only through Snowflake Support?

Virtual Private Snowflake (VPS) provides the highest level of security by deploying a completely isolated Snowflake environment. Due to this isolation, sharing data with accounts outside of the VPS is disabled by default. To ensure security and proper network configuration, customers must contact Snowflake Support to enable data sharing between their VPS account and any non-VPS accounts. This process allows Snowflake to configure the necessary private connectivity for secure data exchange.

B. Business Critical: Data sharing is enabled by default in the Business Critical edition and does not require intervention from Snowflake Support to use.
C. Enterprise: Data sharing is a standard feature in the Enterprise edition, enabled by default for use between any Snowflake accounts.
D. Standard: The Standard edition includes Secure Data Sharing as a core feature, which is enabled by default without needing to contact support.

Reference: The feature comparison table shows "Secure Data Sharing" is available for Standard, Enterprise, and Business Critical editions. The documentation for these editions does not mention a requirement to contact support for enablement, unlike the specific documentation for VPS.
