- Staging database created by SQL Script 01 (e.g., CL_BRIDGE_STAGE_DB)

Terminology
As the data moves from the Ignition Edge device through MQTT Sparkplug and into Snowflake different terminology will be used with the equivalence shown below:
...
The table is populated by the Snowflake Snowpipe Streaming API as data is streamed in by the IoT bridge.

Node Database
The Node database also contains only a single table, SPARKPLUG_DEVICE_MESSAGES, but also has additional views, user defined functions, store procedures, streams, etc.
The SPARKPLUG_DEVICE_MESSAGES table contains partially processed data where each row in the table is a single message containing data for each model instance (aka. Device Name). This data is sourced from SPARKPLUG_RAW table and is inserted by the synch_device_messages() stored procedure. The synch_device_messages() stored procedure is executed on demand by the IoT Bridge for Snowflake.
The IoT Bridge for Snowflake will automatically create a new schema in its “Node” database for every Sparkplug edge node it finds. The Bridge will then create Views within this schema for each model found in the Sparkplug edge node data ingested via the bridge . There are three views per model:
...
- Example: CL_BRIDGE_NODE_DB.NB_GROUP_EDGE.MOTOR

Intermediate View

- Example: CL_BRIDGE_NODE_DB.NB_GROUP_EDGE.MOTOR_VW

Asof View
This view is basically the same as the Intermediate view - each model instance tag is separated out into its own column. However, each row in this view has the null values from the Intermediate views removed (unless the tag change really had a null value) and the last known good value for the model instance tag will be replicated in its column. Said another way, each row will have the last known good values for all model instance tags.
- Example: CL_BRIDGE_NODE_DB.NB_GROUP_EDGE.MOTOR_ASOF_VW
