Not on the current edition
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar

Snowpark is a library for querying and processing data at scale in Snowflake. Our teams use it for writing manageable code for interacting with data residing in Snowflake — it's akin to writing Spark code but for Snowflake. Ultimately, it's an engine that translates code into SQL that Snowflake understands. You can build applications that process data in Snowflake without moving data to the system where your application code runs. One drawback: unit testing support is suboptimal; our teams compensate for that by writing other types of tests.
