Overall Satisfaction with Snowflake

Snowflake is giving a very robust cloud-based data warehousing solution with all the benefits of going to the cloud. Data sharing is one critical area in data management and Snowflake's innovative way of sharing data without physically moving it as a great feature. This is the exact needs that many of my clients had and Snowflake was just about a perfect fit!
  • Data sharing without physically moving data and without compromising security aspect
  • Unlimited scalability and elasticity (with proven client examples)
  • Almost no to very little maintenance (Snowflake takes care of it for you)
  • Graphical user interface for developers to build their applications
  • In-built CI-CD integration capabilities
  • In-built data lineage capabilities
  • Snowflake's innovative Data sharing capability
  • Separate storage and compute
  • Ability to scale up and down and scale in and out as required
  • Total control over your spend on Snowflake usage
  • Compressed storage makes storage costs comparatively lesser than other competitive products
  • Moving from on-premise solutions to Snowflake greatly reduced spend on Capex
While Snowflake is more open to cloud eco system, SAP integrated well with SAP eco system products like SAP ECC or SAP S/4. So for people who have invested heavily in SAP eco system including SAP ECC or S/4, it makes sense to go with SAP DWC which is also evolving very rapidly. For other customers, Snowflake could be the tool of choice which offers great flexibility when it comes to integration with any other third party solutions.
