Release date
- General availability: 1 April 2026
Enhancements
Fixed incorrect handling of backslash sequences (
\n,\N) in the input data that caused layout shifts and corrupt downstream output.Improved performance by consolidating data loading into a single upfront step. In testing, a 100MM record job completed DQ in ~45 minutes, significantly reducing Snowflake credit consumption compared to previous runs.
Corrected log severity levels — routine operational messages now use INFO instead of FATAL.
Upgraded SnowSQL for continued Snowflake platform compatibility.
Failed tasks/jobs from the 17 March 2026 incident will automatically resume after the upgrade — no manual intervention needed.
Updates to reporting tables that capture job metrics.
