brkyvz commented on issue #26974: [SPARK-30324][SQL] Simplify JSON field access through dot notation URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/26974#issuecomment-568806444 @HyukjinKwon Snowflake uses `:` notation on the column before getting nested fields. I think that's the most obvious and nicest one: https://docs.snowflake.net/manuals/user-guide/querying-semistructured.html#dot-notation Splunk requires you to use `spath` before you can specify which column you want: https://www.crestdatasys.com/blogs/how-to-extract-complex-field-from-nested-json-events-using-splunk-spl/ IMHO I like Snowflake's API, because it is quite explicit. You have a clear separation between which part is case insensitive matching, and which part is case sensitive. And it is also clear that you're extracting a field from a semi-structured data format, instead of assuming the column is already parsed.
