What is Snowflake?

Snowflake’s cloud data platform supports a multi-cloud strategy, including a cross-cloud approach to mix and match clouds as you see fit. Snowflake is available globally on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. With a common and interchangeable code base, Snowflake delivers advantages such as global data replication, which means you can move your data to any cloud in any region, without having to re-code your applications or learn new skills.

Easy to use, continuously improving, a bit pricey

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Snowflake from other similar products?

Ease of use, User Interface, better Support and speed

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Ease of use, User Interface, better Support and speed, federated connections integrated with almost all major BI tools.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Not much flexibility on manual partitioning and clustering. Product documentation/ complex capabilities need to be documented as new users are mostly not aware

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Start with the basic version of snowflake and then only consider upgrading to other version as basic version itself supports most of the required features. Engage at least one snowflake professional in the organisation as many features supported by snowflake are not public and not advertised well.
