What the domain reads

The Snowflake objects behind the golden record

Tables are read in place through the Snowflake connector with filters and aggregates pushed down; nothing is copied out.

The keys

How legal entity and company code records match, in this system's fields

LEIregistration number and jurisdictionlegal name and country (fuzzy)

The first object above carries the strong keys; the standardised attributes come from the same rows. The legal hierarchy is the reference for consolidation; the management hierarchy is a second, separate tree.

What is written back

Through the interfaces Snowflake supports

Golden records and their history are written with MERGE into a governed schema, so the warehouse always carries the current keys.

InterfaceUsed forResult
MERGE INTO GOLDEN.LEGAL_ENTITY on the golden key; history in GOLDEN.LEGAL_ENTITY_HISTORYgolden values approved for write-back: entity; ownership; representationthe id or error Snowflake returns, stored beside the change

Write-back is off per object until a test write succeeds, and approval rules can require a person per object. Reconciliation compares the source row with the golden value on a schedule.

Access and prerequisites

What is in place before the first build

Questions

Does this domain copy data out of Snowflake?

The golden record reads the objects above in place. History the pivot needs at scale is landed in your lake by the Backbone, under the same keys, security and audit.

What does the Snowflake team need to do?

Grant the read access and the write interfaces listed above and agree the refresh method. Nothing is installed in Snowflake.

Can we start with reads only?

Yes. Write-back stays off per object until a test write succeeds; the golden view, the API and the pivots work from day one on reads.
