What is Snowflake?
Snowflake is a cloud-based data warehousing tool that supplies companies with flexible and scalable storage while simultaneously hosting solutions for business intelligence. The platform is built completely on the cloud and employs a subscription-based model which provides both storage and computation services that operate independently. Snowflake stores both structured and semi-structured data, converting it into a usable format that is compatible with SQL. The company’s services are provided on-demand, empowering users to select only the computational capacity and storage they need before paying for it based on usage or at monthly fixed rates.
