Snowflake constraints (PK, FK, AK) support RELY in reverse/forward engineering and object properties. The RELY property is a keyword included in the constraint definition and acts as a hint for the Snowflake optimizer to rely on the integrity of the constraint and perform join elimination on views and redundant queries. An article describing how RELY can improve query cost and performance is available here.

SqlDBM users can now find the project they are looking for faster by typing all or part of the name into the search bar at the top of the page. Search results include personal and shared projects as well as branch names from those with concurrent working.
SqlDBM's visual modeling interface lets users rearrange or clone columns in or across tables by simply clicking and dragging.

SqlDBM is excited to partner with Databricks and provide native support for Databricks projects-offering collaboration, visibility, and cataloging, all in the cloud. Databricks provides the management and performance of a data warehouse with the flexible object store of a data lake.
