Thanks for explaining it with an end to end project. I have a question... Once we create an integration on a s3 bucket and create a stage on top of it.. how do we identify and load only the delta files into snowflake table? For ex: On Day 1 we have 10 files.. and on Day 2 we have 10 new files.. how can manage to load only the new 10 files into snowflake table? Thanks you.
Good morning sir, very good explanation sir.iam mounika.i have learnt snowflake software from a private institute, but I have the career gap.now i want to improve my skill, for that i would like to work with real time work shops on snowflake.so sir, is there any freelancers or real time work shop on snowflake.

Great observation! This reversal of numbering is common in certain technical or architectural diagrams to reflect a "flow" of steps in the process, but can indeed create some confusion. Here's why it often happens: Diagram Sequence vs. Execution Flow: Diagrams may label components or stages in a logical hierarchy (e.g., the final data warehouse like Snowflake may be labeled as step 1 because it’s the final destination of your data). However, the steps are executed in reverse, starting from the raw data source (which might be labeled step 3, since it's the initial point of data ingestion). Final Destination First: Often, the final stage (e.g., where data is loaded, such as Snowflake) is labeled as "1" to emphasize the end goal of the process. This approach is common in project plans or workflow charts where the target is highlighted first. The flow, however, starts at the origin (S3 or data lake), hence the actual process runs from "3 → 2 → 1." Hierarchical Presentation: The final step is presented as the most important, so it may be visually or logically numbered first. This helps to understand that all preceding steps aim toward achieving this final goal.
Snowflake Integration object is used for making relationship between the snowflake and external cloud storage. if you want to load the data file from external storage, first of all we need to create an Intergation object and in that intergation object we are going to define the location of the file and role(which is used for accessing the files). whereas snowpipe is used for continous data loading, sometimes in relatime we will get the data for every one hour or within certain time in microbatches. so once the data is available in storage locations, cloud vendor will send an notification to the snowflake. once snowflake receives notification it will load the data.
Integration Objects vs. Pipes in Dataflow Integration Objects and Pipes are fundamental components in dataflow systems, each serving distinct purposes. While they might appear similar at first glance, understanding their differences is crucial for effective data processing. Integration Objects Purpose: Integration objects are designed to connect dataflow systems to external sources or destinations. They act as bridges between the internal processing of data and the external world. Functionality: Integration objects handle tasks such as: Reading data from external sources (e.g., files, databases, APIs) Writing data to external destinations (e.g., files, databases, APIs) Transforming data to match the requirements of the external system Types: Common types of integration objects include: File readers/writers: For reading from or writing to files in various formats (e.g., CSV, JSON, XML) Database connectors: For interacting with databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server) API connectors: For communicating with web APIs (e.g., REST, SOAP) Message queues: For integrating with messaging systems (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka) Pipes Purpose: Pipes are used to define the flow of data within a dataflow system. They represent the logical connections between different processing stages or components. Functionality: Pipes handle tasks such as: Transmitting data from one component to another Applying transformations to the data (e.g., filtering, mapping, aggregation) Controlling the flow of data (e.g., branching, looping) Types: Pipes can be categorized based on their functions: Data transformation pipes: Apply transformations to the data (e.g., map, filter, reduce) Data flow control pipes: Control the flow of data (e.g., branch, loop) Data storage pipes: Store data temporarily (e.g., buffer) When to Use Which Integration Objects: Use integration objects when you need to interact with external systems or sources. They are essential for connecting your dataflow system to the outside world. Pipes: Use pipes to define the internal logic and flow of data within your dataflow system. They are crucial for transforming, filtering, and controlling the data as it moves through the pipeline. In summary, integration objects are the gateways to the external world, while pipes are the building blocks of the internal dataflow process. By understanding their roles and differences, you can effectively design and implement robust dataflow systems.
sure we will make a seperate video for the same, here will explain little short . Certainly! The "Control Framework" in the context of a Snowflake project typically refers to a set of guidelines, best practices, and processes that help manage and maintain the data architecture, data pipelines, and overall data management within a Snowflake data warehouse environment. It ensures consistency, reliability, and scalability in your data operations. Here's an overview of how a control framework might work for a Snowflake project: Key Elements: Governance: Define data standards, ownership, and access rules. Environments: Separate environments (dev, test, prod) with proper security. Data Model: Design logical/physical models for data organization. ETL/ELT: Implement structured data extraction, loading, and transformation. Version Control: Manage code changes and deployments. Testing: Ensure data quality with automated validation. Monitoring: Watch query performance and resource utilization. Backup/Recovery: Plan for data protection and disaster scenarios. Documentation: Maintain architecture and process documentation. Improvement: Continuously enhance based on feedback and lessons learned.
This content is absolutely astonishing. I recently read a similar book, and it was an absolute marvel. "Mastering AWS: A Software Engineers Guide" by Nathan Vale
Hi, when we are running for all the files, in what order it will load in the file ? how can I set my files to be loaded based on timestamp. For example its a full load and I did not run my process today. So next day there will be two files in my S3 location. I want to load only one file that I have the latest timestamp. How can we achieve that. thanks for your answer in advance.
To load only the file with the latest timestamp from your S3 bucket, you can follow these steps using AWS SDKs like Boto3 in Python, or similar mechanisms if you're working in another language or platform. Here's a general approach in Python using Boto3: Steps to Achieve the Desired File Load: List all the files in the S3 bucket location: You can use the list_objects_v2() function to list all the files in the specified S3 path. Sort files by timestamp: From the result of the list, you can extract the timestamps (typically from the file name or metadata) and sort the files accordingly. Pick the file with the latest timestamp: Once sorted, pick the most recent file. Load the file: Perform the desired operation with the latest file.
Hello Sir , I Have creatded the statge intergation the same way but i am getting i am getting the error to check aws role "Snowflake Error assuming AWS_ROLE. Please verify the role and external Id are configured correctly in your AWS policy." though all is verified .While List @stage iam getting this error
Hi! The error you're seeing typically occurs if there's a mismatch between the AWS role configuration and Snowflake's integration setup. Make sure: The AWS role has the correct trust relationship with Snowflake. The External ID is correctly set in both Snowflake and AWS. Your AWS policy allows the necessary S3 bucket actions. Double-check the trust policy in AWS IAM and ensure the role ARN is correct. If everything seems fine and the error persists, try re-creating the integration. Let me know how it goes!
Failure using stage area. Cause: [Access Denied (Status Code: 403; Error Code: AccessDenied)] How do i resolve this error, i have made the data public in the aws s3 and can view the data in the aws but in the snowflake it is giving me this error.
