AltaSQL Enterprise for Snowflake

AltaSQL Enterprise: Metadata-Driven Automation of Virtual Views and SELECT Statements for Snowflake

AltaSQL Enterprise revolutionizes how organizations build and maintain analytical SQL in Snowflake. Designed for large-scale, complex environments, AltaSQL Enterprise eliminates manual SQL writing by reliably and consistently generating SQL statements from metadata.

AltaSQL provide easy to use, "Ready-to-Execute" function calls to our Secure UDFs delivered via Snowflake Shared Database technology. No software to install!

At the heart of AltaSQL metadata repositories re user created Snowflake tables that capture and manage all the logic needed to manage and generate SQL. These repositories are organized into reusable View Definitions containing:

At the heart of AltaSQL is the metadata repository — Snowflake-native table that captures and manages all the logic needed to manage and generate SQL. These repositories are organized into reusable View Definitions. View Definitions contain two categories of metadata. View Columns and AltaSQL Tags.

"View Column" definitions generate column alias syntax column in SELECT, CREATE VIEW and CTAS DDL statements.

AltaSQL Tags-are user defined metadata catalog capabilities including:

·       Join Logic: Define environment specific FROM clauses with JOIN conditions without hand coding SQL.

·       Modular SQL Generation: Insert reusable logic, expressions, or filters into generated SQL.

·       Enhanced Documentation: Add extended description.

·       Complete, ready to run SQL statements and scripts

AltaSQL does not execute generated SQL, enabling review and modification of SQL statements. Generated SQL may be executed in SQL editors or procedural code.

By leveraging AltaSQL’s patented architecture, users can:

- Eliminate hand coding and editing of SQL scripts, dramatically reducing effort, errors and frustration.

- Generate SELECT statements from View Definitions ("Virtual Views").

- Manage column transformations, aliases, masks, and Tags directly in metadata.

- Perform View Definition Transformations by cloning and modifying existing definitions to support new use cases, naming conventions, or environments.

- Create scalable, reusable join logic using modular, environment-specific AltaSQL Tags.

- Edit metadata via AltaSQL defined SQL UDFs or via spreadsheets — no IDE, YAML, or GUI needed

- Streamline CI/CD Pipelines: Full automate CREATE VIEW DDL with column comments, dynamic data masking and Snowflake Tags, all contained in AltaSQL metadata

- Maintain full visibility and control over every generated SQL statement

- Strengthen governance through reusable, versioned, and documented metadata repositories 

With *no limits* on repositories, users and usage, AltaSQL Enterprise supports the most demanding data products, data marts, and analytic workloads in Snowflake — empowering teams to build faster, govern better, and deliver insights at scale.
