More Enhancements in SOLE
We are continuously enhancing our Snowflake Object Lifecycle Engine with more capabilities to help you fully manage your Snowflake ecosystem. You can now:
- Plan modifications to any Snowflake database before applying them by using the plan and apply for lifecycle jobs. Learn more
- Review in a human-readable version, generated as part of the plan lifecycle job, all the modifications planned to be applied to a Snowflake database. Learn more
- Use the SNOWPARK-OPTIMIZED warehouse that provides 16x memory per node compared to a standard Snowflake virtual warehouse. Learn more
- Prevent SOLE from implicitly granting USAGE privileges on the parent and grandparent objects by simply setting a value to a variable. Learn more
