That's one of my recent surprises. While I have been exploring arbitrary stateful processing, hence the mapGroupsWithState among others, I mistakenly created a batch DataFrame and applied the mapping function on top of it. Turns out, it worked! Well, not really but I let you discover why in this blog post.

According to Infosys, 35% of AI projects will either fail or experience delays because of poor data quality. There’s a huge gap between the data quality most companies have by default and the data quality needed for successful AI. And that gap is directly affecting the performance and reliability of AI systems everywhere. As organizations expand their use of Snowflake to build and deploy new AI-powered data applications, comprehensive data observability is critical to success.

There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
