It sits on top of the adbc-driver-manager and provides familiar cursor and connection objects that developers expect from Python database libraries.\n\nThe driver is maintained as part of the Apache Arrow project and supports current Python versions (3.10+). It is distributed as precompiled wheels for common platforms (macOS, Linux, Windows across x86_64 and ARM architectures), though building from source requires the native Snowflake driver library and an environment variable to be set. It has no known security vulnerabilities and receives active maintenance.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to connect to Snowflake from Python and prefer a DBAPI 2.0-compatible interface. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and is distributed as precompiled wheels for most platforms. Medium install friction is mainly a concern if building from source; prebuilt wheels are straightforward. Suitable for production use in applications requiring Snowflake connectivity."},"id":"adbc-driver-snowflake","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/adbc-driver-snowflake","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/adbc-driver-snowflake.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/adbc-driver-snowflake/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-07","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"adbc-driver-snowflake","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"An ADBC driver for working with Snowflake."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":144512,"position":11150,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.11.0"}
