Announcing full support for the Snowflake driver In the previous release we included a preview of the Snowflake driver. This new release provides full ODBC, dbplyr, and Python support for Snowflake, as well as corrects some issues that occurred on new installations.
This release makes working with the Snowflake data cloud as easy as working with other supported data sources. For example, the same dplyr syntax used with data in R will also work with data in Snowflake.
