Is Snowflake SQL or NoSQL?

The question is about Snowflake

Answer:

Snowflake is SQL-based, with native support for structured and semi-structured data. While it uses SQL as the main interface to query, manage, and analyze data, it also manages semi-structured formats like JSON, Avro, and Parquet, which are usually associated with NoSQL systems. Snowflake harmoniously merges SQL’s relational model with NoSQL’s flexibility in data handling, making it highly versatile across a wide range of data types and use cases.
