The revolution in cloud technology with Snowflake

Back to overview

Willkommen zu unserem „Data Excellence Month„, einer Plattform, auf der wir Ihnen jeden Monat Einblicke und Best Practices von unseren Experten präsentieren. Im Januar beginnen wir mit einer spannenden Entdeckungsreise in die Welt der Daten und Cloud-Technologien.

This month's focus is on Christian Schmitt, our Cloud Solution Manager and Data Excellence Expert. Last year, he successfully built our Snowflake team from the ground up and led it to SnowPro Core certification. This month, he shares his extensive knowledge of Snowflake with us.

Snowflake - A revolution in data processing

Willkommen zu unserem „Data Excellence Month Januar“ bei der in-factory GmbH. Christian, du bist diesen Monat unser Experte zum Thema Snowflake. Kannst du uns zum Einstieg die Besonderheiten von Snowflake erläutern?

Christian: Of course. Snowflake is unique in its ability to enable multi-cloud data integration. It interacts seamlessly with different cloud environments and offers flexible data management across multiple providers. Snowflake's architecture is divided into three independent layers - storage, compute and services - which enables scalable and efficient data processing.

What about data security and efficiency at Snowflake?

Christian: Snowflake bietet mit dem „Secure Data Sharing“ eine sichere Möglichkeit, Daten zwischen verschiedenen Organisationen zu teilen. Das Besondere dabei ist, dass dies ohne Daten-Duplizierung geschieht, was Kosteneinsparungen mit sich bringt und die Zusammenarbeit vereinfacht. Ein weiteres wichtiges Merkmal ist das Micropartitioning, wodurch Daten in extrem kleine Partitionen aufgeteilt werden, was die Abfragegeschwindigkeit und Performance steigert.

And how does Snowflake affect data management and analysis?

Christian: Snowflake supports multi-format data analytics, which means that it enables the processing of different data formats, including structured and unstructured data. This contributes significantly to agile and efficient data processing. Snowflake also offers the time-travel function, which enables access to historical data and provides robust failsafe mechanisms.

The future lies in the cloud

What role will cloud technology play in the future? And how is in-factory GmbH positioning itself in this area?

Christian: Cloud technology is more than just a trend; it is a decisive factor for the future of the business world. It enables companies to store, process and access large amounts of data efficiently. This is crucial at a time when data volumes and complexity are constantly increasing. At in-factory GmbH, we offer a wide range of expertise in cloud solutions, from IDMC with Informatica to hybrid and migration solutions.
