Explanation:

The account usage views in Snowflake provide historical usage data about the Snowflake account, and they retain this data for a period of up to 1 year. These views include information about dropped objects, enabling audit and tracking activities. On the other hand, information schema views provide metadata about database objects currently in use, such as tables and views, but do not include dropped objects. The retention of data in information schema views varies, but it is generally shorter than the retention for account usage views, ranging from 7 days to a maximum of 6 months, depending on the specific view.
