Explanation

Window Functions

A window function operates on a group (“window”) of related rows.

Each time a window function is called, it is passed a row (the current row in the window) and the window of rows that contain the current row. The window function returns one output row for each input row. The output depends on the individual row passed to the function and the values of the other rows in the window passed to the function.

Some window functions are order-sensitive. There are two main types of order-sensitive window functions:

Rank-related functions.

Window frame functions.

Rank-related functions list information based on the “rank” of a row. For example, if you rank stores in descending order by profit per year, the store with the most profit will be ranked 1; the second-most profitable store will be ranked 2, etc.

Window frame functions allow you to perform rolling operations, such as calculating a running total or a moving average, on a subset of the rows in the window.

Explanation

From the perspective of a user running a SQL statement, an external function behaves like any other UDF . External functions follow these rules:

External functions return a value.

External functions can accept parameters.

An external function can appear in any clause of a SQL statement in which other types of UDF can appear. For example:

1.select my_external_function_2(column_1, column_2)

2.from table_1;

1.select col1

2.from table_1

3.where my_external_function_3(col2) < 0;

1.create view view1 (col1) as

2.select my_external_function_5(col1)

3.from table9;

An external function can be part of a more complex expression:

1.select upper(zipcode_to_city_external_function(zipcode))

2.from address_table;

The returned value can be a compound value, such as a VARIANT that contains JSON.

External functions can be overloaded; two different functions can have the same name but different signatures (different numbers or data types of input parameters).

Explanation

Secure Data Sharing lets you share selected objects in a database in your account with other Snow-flake accounts. You can share the following Snowflake database objects:

Tables

External tables

Secure views

Secure materialized views

Secure UDFs

Snowflake enables the sharing of databases through shares, which are created by data providers and “imported” by data consumers.
