Abstract

The subject technology receives a notification that a modification has been made to an external table, the modification comprising inserting at least one row of new data to the external table, the at least one row corresponding to a first micro-partition that includes a first portion of data from the external table prior to the inserting. The subject technology, in response to the notification indicating the modification to the external table, generates a new micro-partition different from the first micro-partition, the new micro-partition including the inserted at least one row of new data and the first portion of data from the external table. The subject technology generates a refreshed materialized view based at least in part on the generated new micro-partition such that the refreshed materialized view comprises a representation of the external table after the modification has been made.
