this is the beat transactional and relational database solution, i am having a great experience with this, all the dump and require are very easy with commands like msqldump
This is the database system which has implemented the transactional model , so this can be used for normal form (n1,n2, n3) data base schema design and not to be used for demential schema design, Mysql is a server based database model, which has implemented the relational model, it is not a cloud based solution, With mysql the database import and export is very easy, with mysqldump commands, mysql has a workbench applications which is really usefully, it has major features like data transfer between tables in different servers etc and schem designing diagram builder etc
Mysql dose not have s3 integration and don't have advance copy commands etc which psql and snowflake supports, since mysql is meant for transactional this is fine , syntax difference between psql

Overall, Snowflake has made managing, processing, aggregating and sharing data easier across the organization. It still has some work to do in terms of UI to make the user experience smoother, but the underlying technology at its core is solid and solves many issues with backups, data retention and overall user error in working with data.
The "Time Travel" aspect of Snowflake, being able to pick a point in time and see the state/contents of nearly any table is astonishing. Very useful and impressive feature. What is equally as impressive is the overall performance of the platform. I've worked with Oracle, DB2, MySQL, Vertica, Teradata, ParAccel, and others. Maybe not always in the most optimal configurations, but Snowflake's performance has been overall the best in my experience.
As a newer platform, there are certain convenience elements that Snowflake lacks. - No auto-complete of object names. - No "easy" import wizard to import data. - Some bugs with the browser-based interface (worksheets did not properly save). - Limited customizations to filter out the tables or objects you don't work with regularly. Always shows full list, oftentimes very large.
