Scala and Java UDFs in Unity Catalog are now generally available
Register Scala and Java user-defined functions (UDFs) in Unity Catalog and reuse them across notebooks, jobs, and SQL warehouses with Unity Catalog governance. Reuse existing JVM logic and get better performance than Python UDFs on all compute, including serverless. See Scala and Java user-defined functions (UDFs) in Unity Catalog .
MLflow trace storage in Unity Catalog is now generally available
MLflow trace storage in Unity Catalog tables is now generally available. Databricks recommends storing traces in Unity Catalog for new and production workloads: storage is unlimited, traces are stored in OpenTelemetry (OTel) format, access is governed through Unity Catalog schema and table permissions, and you can query traces with SQL, Genie, AI/BI...
Agentic code converter is in Beta
The agentic code converter is in Beta . Use it to convert legacy SQL dialects, such as T-SQL, Snowflake, Redshift, Oracle, BigQuery, and Teradata, to ANSI SQL in migration projects in your workspace.
Google Gemini 3 Pro is retired
Google Gemini 3 Pro is retired. Gemini 3.1 Pro is the recommended replacement. See Deprecated and retired models for migration guidance.

Snowflake Data Clean Rooms updates
Clean room UI users: New updates are applied to the UI automatically when a user starts a new session after a new update is deployed. To ensure new updates are applied, make sure to log out and log back into the UI. Clean room API users: API updates are applied either manually or automatically to an account. Learn how to manage updates for Data Clean Rooms.
VOLATILE scalar UDFs are supported with dynamic table incremental refresh (General availability)
VOLATILE scalar user-defined functions (UDFs) are now supported with dynamic table incremental refresh in INCREMENTAL, AUTO, and ADAPTIVE refresh modes. This applies to scalar UDFs written in Python, Java, Scala, JavaScript, and SQL. For incremental refresh, VOLATILE UDFs are supported only in the SELECT clause.
Named key pair management for users
You can now use SQL to register, rotate, modify, and remove named key pairs for a user. Each key pair has its own name and supports an optional role restriction and expiration time. Named key pairs improve on the legacy approach of setting the RSA_PUBLIC_KEY and RSA_PUBLIC_KEY_2 user properties, which Snowflake continues to support.
Consumer-controlled maintenance policies , General Availability
Consumer-controlled maintenance policies for Snowflake Native Apps are now generally available. Consumers can define when Snowflake Native App upgrades happen in their accounts by creating a maintenance policy and applying it to an account or an individual app. For more information, see Consumer-controlled maintenance policies .
CREATE OR ALTER is generally available for 24 object types
CREATE OR ALTER is now generally available for 24 object types. CREATE OR ALTER creates an object if it doesn’t exist, or modifies an existing object to match the statement definition. It’s especially useful in declarative deployment workflows and CI/CD pipelines where the same script must be safe to re-run.
Catalog integration for Snowflake Postgres (General availability)
Catalog integrations for Snowflake Postgres are now generally available. A Snowflake Postgres catalog integration lets Snowflake automatically discover tables managed by a Snowflake Postgres instance and access them as read-only Apache Iceberg™ tables, using vended credentials so you don’t need to configure an external volume or manage storage credentials...
Clone dynamic Iceberg tables (General availability)
You can now clone a dynamic Iceberg table to a new dynamic Iceberg table or to a Snowflake-managed Iceberg table. In addition, cloning a database or schema now includes any dynamic Iceberg tables it contains. Previously, dynamic Iceberg tables were silently skipped during database and schema clones. For more information, see Clone a dynamic Iceberg table .
Snowflake CoWork mobile app for iOS (General availability)
The Snowflake CoWork mobile app for iOS is now generally available on the App Store. Use the mobile app to ask questions about your data, continue conversations, and review results from anywhere.
