SNOW-1524454: Too many dependencies in Snowflake.Data nuget package

[AndreyTomilinXmpi]

These are current package dependencies:

Apache.Arrow (>= 14.0.2)
AWSSDK.S3 (>= 3.7.0.4)
Azure.Storage.Blobs (>= 12.13.0)
Azure.Storage.Common (>= 12.12.0)
BouncyCastle.Cryptography (>= 2.2.1)
Google.Cloud.Storage.V1 (>= 4.6.0)
log4net (>= 2.0.12)
Mono.Unix (>= 7.1.0-final.1.21458.1)
Newtonsoft.Json (>= 13.0.3)
System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt (>= 6.34.0)
System.Text.RegularExpressions (>= 4.3.1)

My problem is that I'm are using Amazon and I don't need all other providers (libraries). It becomes complex to update all these packages and produces package version conflicts.

Why not create multiple Snowflake libraries so that each of them will support a specific cloud provider.
Say, Amazon library is divided into multiple libraries. Each of them is intended for a specific service.
For example:

Snowflake.Data.Azure
Snowflake.Data.Google
Snowflake.Data.Amazon

Also, would be great if you would use built in JSON and Logging libraries instead of using third party ones.

hi, closing this as a duplicate of

• SNOW-834781: Can we remove log4net and delegate logging to library consumers #204
• Dependencies are tightly coupled, making this difficult to adopt in enterprise applications #612
  we're aware of this requirement and tracking the effort of solving them on the above Issues.

but if something is not tracked on the aforementioned tickets, do comment please
