Improvement
Simplified creation and debugging of virtual schemas by enforceing correct datatypes.
Exasol enforces that virtual schemas always return the correct column data types instead of trying to implicitly cast into the required type.
If the data type of a column does not match the expected data type, the query will terminate with an error.
Changed behavior
Correct virtual schema data types are enforced at runtime
