What is Snowflake
Built for the
cloud
SQL Data
Warehouse
Our Vision
Provide all users anytime, anywhere
insights so they can make actionable
decisions based on data
Our Solution
Next-generation data warehouse built
from the ground up for the cloud and for
today’s data and analytics
Delivered as
a service

Snowflake’s differentiating technology
Unique architecture: Multi-cluster, shared data
Single place for
data
z
Instant, unlimited
scalability
Minimal
management
Instant, live data
sharing

• Storage separated from
compute
• Multiple compute clusters
(“virtual warehouses”)
• Virtual warehouses
concurrently access data
without contention
Snowflake architecture: Storage and compute

• Centralized management
• Metadata separate from

Data Sources
Cloud
Typically backed by a
cloud database (i.e.
RDS)
Can run in customer
VPC
Typically offers fewer
options than on-
premises
Software as a service
Typically data is only
available via API
Outside of customer
firewall or VPC
Customer has very little
control over handling of
data
On Premises
Typically backed by a
local database
Data lives within the
firewall
Customer controls both
the data and the
system

Data Integration Solutions
ETL
No need for code
Processing most often
happens outside of the
database
Easier to maintain than
code, but requires
specialized skills
ELT
Shift all data
processing to EDW
Requires tight
integration between
Data Integration and
EDW
Raw and transformed
data in one system
Customer Code
Flexible but complex
Programmers control
where the processing
will be done
Challenging to manage
and maintain

Data Integration Solutions
Cloud
Easy to deploy and manage
Can run in customer VPC to provide
direct access to data within VPC or
behind firewall
Easy integration with Cloud Data
Warehouse
On Premises
Customer owns hardware and
software installation, configuration,
and updates
Don’t have to deal with firewall to
access local sources
Requires custom integration with
Cloud Data Warehouse

Best Practices
Use bulk loading to get the data to the cloud
Leverage the scalable compute layer to do the bulk of
the data processing
Isolate load and transform jobs from queries to prevent
resource contention
Focus on organizing the data to support business users
Leverage the expertise of a Solution partner
