[@Sweety_24]

Thank you so much for the clear explanation. I have one doubt-could you please tell me what the important topics in Snowflake are for a data engineer role that I should revise or cover?

[@AkmalHussain-fb3dr]

Great Content, professional delivery and a very effective approach. Great service to the community indeed. Thank you very much for your great work. You are awesome!

[@ॐनमःशिवाय-ख9ल]

Same here! Even in udemy and pluralsight we can't find one of such content.. love to have a complete structured tutorial.

[@sketchstudios05]

Very nice series, I am following whole playlist and this is the best snowflake training I ever came across

[@justvenkyy...3423]

great explanation with examples. please create real time projects choosing the right service.issues encountered and performance improvements.

[@srikamalit]

Nice. Do you have a cheat sheet or matrix that shows what is feasible and not feasible?

[@jimitmehta5985]

Excellent explanation... I had a question...Can you list down account level objects and schema level objects?

[@maniobulreddydumpala9482]

You are most welcome

[@dineshgudla3735]

Well Explained with good examples, you are ankit bansal of Snowflake..

[@DataEngineering]

Thanks...

[@vishwasrock4809]

Your videos are amazing. I am having one doubt with cloning, I have updated the cloned tables but still active bytes are 0. I tried many times but result is same. Could you please explain why it is showing 0 active bytes for updated cloned table.

[@haridatta5495]

perfect explanation, loving the series. have a question on the micro partitions, when we have CDC how will snowflake maintain inactive and active micro partitions?

[@RaulMuciño]

Greate course work! I have a question: Is any compute cost associated with cloning?

[@DataEngineering]

No.. closing is metadata level operation..

[@krishnateja345]

Hi am learning a lot from your content, Appreciating for your efforts. the way you are providing the content is simply superb and am very happy for that and thank you so much. one thing is like am unable to access the scripts which you have shared in the description getting 401 Error. could you please allow me to access the scripts.

[@michaelcalimag9688]

cool snowflake learning. do you have other videos for the advance data engineer and architecture?

[@DataEngineering]

Thanks Michael... I am yet to think about advance courses for architect...

[@mahaprasadmohapatra5208]

Please make a video on optimization methods used in snowflake to handle complex queries.

Sure, will do it soon,

Hi....do u also have a video/upcoming video on Account and Security topic as well?

[@DataEngineering]

Not sure what do you mean by account, however I reqeust you to watch ch-7 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpqWq2SErqeXY7s) and ch-3 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6DGlZqLd55ngbM).

Sure @Subba, planning to make it soon.

[@mayanknema3007]

Thank you so much for creating this Snowflake tutorial. It's extremely useful and stands out from the rest of the content on KZbin. Could you please advise on how to troubleshoot any errors that arise as a result of a format mismatch while loading data? So, In the case of numeric data types, for example, instead of 98765, we have 987lm. You can also suggest any tutorial videos that have addressed this issue.

[@DataEngineering]

Thanks for watching my videos.. for such field, you have to first take them as string (varchar) and then apply transformation to convert them. Snowflake does not provide any direct way to convert such text into proper number.

[@mayanknema3007]

Please add a video for unstructured data . i.e working with JOSON data. Json data that comes from external stage. and how would clone work with JSON data .

Will do in future.. keep watching this space. There are lot of JSON processing content videos and blogs available, do you think they are not good or does not give good view about JSON processing.. pls help me with your understanding.. then I can make some good video around it..

[@kusumamathi9812]

Your Videos are just awesome..... Can you pls clear my below doubt Can we clone a table after dropping it(we should not use undrop table) , This table has time travel of 3 days for example? Note: I tried to clone above eg table using time travel feature at (statement) with query id referring to active sate of table prior to dropping. It is giving me error as obj doesnot exists.

[@DataEngineering]

if you drop a table, then it is no more visible in the context (account>>db>>schema) and hence cloning does not work for those objects which are not visible in the context. You have to undrop it and make the object visible and then initiate cloning operation. And you Kusuma, thank you 🙏 for watching my video and your word of appreciation really means a lot to me. ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡ I have already published other knowledge series and snowflake certification videos and if you are interested, you can refer them. 🌐 Snowflake Complete Guide Playlist ➥ bit.ly/3iNTVGI 🌐 SnowPro Guide ➥ bit.ly/35S7Rcb 🌐 Snowflake SQL Series Playlist ➥ bit.ly/3AH6kCq 🌐 SnowPro Question Dump (300 questions) ➥ bit.ly/2ZLQm9E ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡

Rollback operation can be performed on clone table and can we capture how many times clone happen if I set a task to clone a table every 1 hr?

[@DataEngineering]

Never thought of this situation, will experiment and come back to you. There is a field in the information table where you can check the clone and clone-id and you can track it.. but never tried it. But what is your use case.

[@visshalgupta]

Hi what is the alternative for like any in snowflake ?

[@DataEngineering]

There are few like firbolt etc.. but not sure if they are as powerful and feature rich like snowflake.

[@JKTathe]

How to create procedure to clone db objects between two snowflake environment to keep data synchronised?

[@DataEngineering]

Cloning object cross account is not possible, so it will not be possible via stored procedure. Have you tried it via manually? or I misunderstood the question here, please correct me if that is so....

[@mazsoum]

Are Stored proc and UDF also cloned when cloning a database or schema?

[@DataEngineering]

Yes, these objects are also cloned. You can try it out.

[@sukumarreddy4150]

One more 5***** video. thanks a lot for your priceless efforts sir. here I have query can we do clone view/secure view objects

[@DataEngineering]

Thanks @sukumar. You can not use clone keyword for views. The statement if you run "create or replace view my_view clone source_view; " will end up with error SQL compilation error: syntax error line 1 at position 37 unexpected 'mvw'. syntax error line 1 at position 40 unexpected ';'. Howevever, if you clone a schema or db, it will be cloned and the last section of the video covers it.

[@sukumarreddy4150]

Thanks a lot for your quick response 🙏🙏🙏.

[@neerajtiwari1695]

as usual .. Good work Gentle man and very deep explanation I have some questions 1. if external stage can cloned , can i create a new external table on cloned external stage 2. if stream got cloned , it will be a new _clone stream object , Now if any changes happens to base table data it stream will capture the same , does _clone stream object will also reflect the same ? 3. same question as above about pipe cloning , new pipe object will created with suspended status , if we enable this it will point to same stage and table ? if yes then enabling the clone pipe may create situation where , pipe and cloned pipe loading data to table 4. same query goes for task also , if we enable the cloned task object ? as both pipe and task is object which point to a object , does not have its own data ins storage , how both behave , if cloned object of task and pipe is enabled ?

[@DataEngineering]

Here is the answer for your questions 1. Yes, you can create external table using external stage creating via clone. 2. Yes, the cloned stream will just be line normal clone object and it will track as a normal stream object. 3. True, and copying pipe need to be done with keeping that idea in mind, but you are right. 4. Yes, you are true and for pipe/task, they make more sense for db or schema level clone but individual level cloning of pipe or task don't make much sense.. Thanks for these great questions..
