# Snowflake

## Supported Ingestion Methods

* Full
* Incremental
  * It is highly recommended that an index covering the column to be used exists
  * By default, Cloud Firestore [automatically generates single-field indexes](https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/query-data/index-overview#single-field-indexes\\).  Numeric and date types meet the incremental ingestion needs.
