About this listen

Marcin Zukowski, Thierry Cruanes, and Benoit Dageville had a mission. As Snowflake’s founders, they wanted to make all types of data available to anybody with permission to use it via a simple and inexpensive mechanism. Their collective efforts drove the breakthrough creation of the Data Cloud. Snowflake’s Data Cloud platform ingests available data and transforms it into information. Without the ability to effectively process, data is just a collection of raw facts. If data can be managed, processed, and organized, the resulting information can be harnessed to make data-driven decisions. Data Cloud allows organizations to fully automate many core business processes — making them more efficient, massively scalable, and less prone to error.

Suppose you’re an IT manager responsible for managing data. Your frustrations with disconnected datasets, hardware storage constraints, lack of unique identifiers between multiple datasets and access to analytics is making you and your organization less effective. This book will give you an understanding of what we’ve built to help you create a business with data as its most robust foundation.

Snowflake delivers the Data Cloud — a global network where thousands of organizations mobilize data with near-unlimited scale, concurrency, and performance. Inside the Data Cloud, organizations unite their siloes of data, easily discover and securely share governed data, and execute diverse analytic workloads. Wherever data or users live, Snowflake delivers a single and seamless experience across multiple public clouds, helping power the data economy. Snowflake’s platform is the engine that powers and provides access to the Data Cloud, creating a solution for data warehousing, data lakes, data engineering, data science, data application development, and data sharing.
