Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for generating a materialized view over an external table. A method includes connecting a database platform to an external table such that the database platform has read access for the external table and does not have write access for the external table. The method includes generating, by the database platform, a materialized view over the external table. The method includes receiving a notification that a modification has been made to the external table, the modification comprising one or more of an addition of a file, a deletion of a file, or an update to a file in a source location for the external table. The method includes, in response to the external table being modified, refreshing the materialized view such that the materialized view comprises an accurate representation of the external table.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for executing a task on database data in response to a trigger event are disclosed. A method includes executing a transaction on a table comprising database data, wherein executing the transaction comprises generating a new table version. The method includes, in response to the transaction being fully executed, generating a change tracking entry comprising an indication of one or more modifications made to the table by the transaction and storing the change tracking entry in a change tracking stream. The method includes executing a task on the new table version in response to a trigger event.
