  Thanks for sharing your experiences. I've been looking to get into snowflake for some time (even opened this https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/issues/986) . We thought to move to it years ago, but there's no way it was going to replace a significant amount of the mariadb we're running, and unless it did I wasn't looking forward to managing 2 DBs.
