Meet Snowflake

Snowflake is a managed cloud platform for storing, processing, analyzing, and sharing business data. Engineering tools build pipelines, while analytics and modeling support reports and further investigation. Connections across cloud environments and open table formats let teams work with their existing data.

The platform also covers transactional applications and AI. Snowflake Postgres adds managed PostgreSQL, and language-model and machine-learning tools use organizational data in applications. Data sharing supports work across participating organizations.

Governance, observability, recovery, and access controls apply to the workloads. Snowflake operates the infrastructure, while a team defines its models, policies, processing jobs, and the reports or applications that use them.
