Table columns between tables (Teradata) DBC.COLUMNSV and INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS (SnowFlake). But some columns might not have an exact match in Snowflake.

Uses of the table
DBC.COLUMNSV in Teradata are converted to INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS, but some columns might not have an exact match in SnowFlake. That means there are some columns in Teradata for which there is no equivalent in SnowFlake, and there are others that do have a matching column but the content is not exactly the same.
An example of the contents of DBC.COLUMNSV table in Teradata
An example of the contents of INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS table in SnowFlake
Notice, for example, that there is no equivalent column for "ColumnFormat" in SnowFlake and notice also that "DATA_TYPE" seems to be the match for the column "ColumnType" in Teradata, but their content greatly differ.
SELECT columnname FROM dbc.columnsV WHERE tablename = 'TableN';
SELECT
/*** MSC-WARNING - MSCEWI2042 - USES OF TABLE DBC.COLUMNSV ARE CONVERTED TO INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS, BUT SOME COLUMNS MIGHT NOT HAVE AND EXACT MATCH IN SNOWFLAKE ***/
COLUMN_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'TableN';
