The Three Layers of Snowflake's Platform
Elastic Performance Engine
- Simplify your architecture with one engine that can power complex data pipelines, large-scale analytics, feature engineering, interactive applications, and more, across your critical data workloads.
- Instantly and cost-efficiently scale to handle virtually any number of concurrent users and workloads, without impacting performance.
- With robust SQL support and the Snowpark developer framework for Java and Scala access, users with nearly any skill set can harness Snowflake. They can even use their favourite external tools directly with native pushdown integrations.
Intelligent Infrastructure
- Let Snowflake handle the heavy lifting so your team can focus on what matters to your business. As a fully managed service, automations help you reduce risk, improve efficiencies, and focus your teams on high-value data initiatives.
- Snowflake is built for high availability and high reliability so you can stay up-and-running. It automates complex data replication, whether it’s cross-region or even cross-cloud so you can recover quickly.
- Get continual improvements to Snowflake for faster performance, better storage compression, and more—all automatically with no action required. Optimise costs with usage-based pricing and fine-grained controls to rightsize resources for all your data and workloads.
Snowgrid
- Share and collaborate easily without ETL, and all with a single copy of your data. Break down data silos to instantly access data. Discover and share governed data between teams, business units, partners, customers, and more.
- Sophisticated cross-cloud governance controls and flexible policies ensure Snowflake’s modern data sharing and collaboration is secure. Policies follow the data to simplify governance at scale, while unlocking more value from even sensitive and regulated data.
