An equivalent of "QUALIFY" command in Snowflake

Teradata supports QUALIFY function that offers great flexibility to filter only the rows that pass the ranking or row_number. However, when you are migrating to Snowflake, the qualify function is missing in Snowflake

Teradata Qualify Command:

SELECT c1
FROM t1
WHERE c1='A'
QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() OVER
(PARTITION by c1 ORDER BY c1) = 1;

Snowflake equivalent for Qualify Command:

SELECT * FROM
(\nSELECT c1, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION by c1 ORDER BY c1) rn\nFROM t1\nWHERE c1='A'\n) WHERE rn = 1;
