How to compare Snowflake UTF-8 formatted data to Microsoft SQL Server UTF-16 formatted data
/*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Script: udf_convert_to_utf16.sql
Author: [Steve Withington](steve@digitalmine.com)
Dependencies: n/a
Purpose: MSSQL data is stored in UTF-16 format (UTF-8 support didn't roll out until SQL Server 2019)
Snowflake data is stored in UTF-8 format.
This function will convert a UTF-8 string to a UTF-16, MD5 string for comparison purposes
Note: You probably don't want to use this function directly.
