Snowflake is a cloud data platform that provides solutions for data warehousing, data engineering, data lakes, data applications, and securely sharing and consuming data.
A cloud-based data warehouse is a central repository for all your data–a single source of truth.
The concept of a data warehouse is simple — data is regularly extracted from organizational sources (such as CRM and ERP systems) and is cleaned, formatted, validated, organized, and enriched as it is moved to the data warehouse. The data then becomes available across the organization for analysis and reporting.
With Snowflake, the data is stored and secured on the cloud on performant hardware. With a pay-by-the-second costing model, businesses can skip the hardware investments and pay for just what they need.
Snowflake is quick to setup, independently managed, fully hosted, and cost effective. Implementing a cloud data warehouse allows for a reduction of IT management overhead.
Snowflake is built for scale, elasticity, and performance – as it can scale to meet the organization’s needs and is charged by-the-second, it eliminates hardware investments and prevents paying for oversized infrastructure to meet potential future demand. The move to cloud warehousing opens up opportunities for data analysis that on-premises solutions simply cannot support.
Snowflake is identified as a “Leader” in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Management Solutions for Analytics.
Day5 Analytics delivers and supports implementations of Snowflake, providing options to clients looking to enhance their data storage positions.
Some of the key benefits of Snowflake are the ease of setup, extensive support, performance and scale, and interactivity with most tools, including the big cloud platforms AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. Businesses can consider monetization of their data assets with Snowflake’s Data Exchange.
Snowflake also fits nicely with most BI solutions, replacing the traditional place of on-premise SQL databases.
