Snowflake is a cloud-based data warehouse that is built for the cloud. It was founded in 2012 and has raised $1 billion in funding. Snowflake's architecture separates storage, compute, and metadata services, allowing it to offer unlimited scalability, multiple clusters that can access shared data with no downtime, and full transactional consistency across the system. Snowflake has over 2000 customers including large enterprises that use it for analytics, data science, and sharing large volumes of data securely.

All Rights Reserved IT’S JUST NOT WORKING… 5 Complexity Manage both infrastructure and data Limited Scalability Can’t support all data, users and workloads Diversity Unable to consolidate siloed datasets Inadequate Elasticity Stuck with rigid, inflexible architectures Rigid Cost Forced to keep the lights on 24/7 Sharing Transfers limit volume and frequency
How does Snowflake make things easier?
© 2019 Snowflake Computing Inc. All Rights Reserved A NEW ARCHITECTURE FOR DATA WAREHOUSING Multi-cluster, shared data, in the cloud 7 Traditional Architectures Snowflake Shared storage Single cluster Shared-disk Decentralised, local storage Single cluster Shared-nothing Multi-cluster, shared data Centralised, scale-out storage Multiple, independent compute clusters
© 2019 Snowflake Computing Inc. All Rights Reserved Snowflake’s built-for-the-cloud architecture provides many benefits. The key is separation of storage, compute and metadata services. ● Unlimited storage scalability without refactoring ● Multiple clusters can read/write shared data ● Resize clusters instantly - no downtime ● Centrally manage logical assets (warehouse, database, etc) - not technical assets (servers, buckets, etc) ● Full transactional consistency (ACID) across entire system SNOWFLAKE ARCHITECTURE Management Optimisation Security Availability Transactions Metadata
