Snowflake is a cloud-based data warehousing platform that provides scalable and flexible data storage, processing, and analytics. It enables organizations to consolidate and analyze large volumes of data from various sources efficiently, leveraging its unique architecture and cloud-native capabilities.
This provider does not support native column-to-column lineage. Column-level lineage can be enabled through lineage parsing. To activate this feature, contact our Customer Success team. For more information, see Sources of data lineage.
