Snowflake is a cloud-based data warehousing platform that offers several key features: 1. **Scalability**: Snowflake can scale up or down based on the workload, allowing for efficient resource management. 2. **Concurrency**: It supports multiple users and workloads simultaneously without performance degradation. 3. **Data Sharing**: Snowflake allows for secure and easy data sharing across different organizations and platforms. 4. **Separation of Storage and Compute**: This feature allows users to scale storage and compute resources independently, optimizing costs and performance. 5. **Support for Structured and Semi-Structured Data**: Snowflake can handle both structured data (like SQL tables) and semi-structured data (like JSON, Avro, and Parquet). 6. **Security**: It provides robust security features, including encryption, role-based access control, and network isolation. 7. **Ease of Use**: Snowflake offers a user-friendly interface and SQL support, making it accessible for users with different levels of technical expertise. 8. **Data Cloning**: It allows for zero-copy cloning, enabling users to create instant copies of databases without additional storage costs. 9. **Time Travel**: This feature allows users to access historical data and restore data to a previous state. 10. **Automatic Optimization**: Snowflake automatically optimizes storage and query performance without requiring manual tuning.

The integration from Databricks if using okta
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are replacing our Hadoop environment and Datawarehouse while reducing complexity and providing a more reliable environment
Downed the Snowflake Kool-Aid
What do you like best about the product?
The announcements and new releases are proof of the innovation of its leaders and their drive to put customers first. The fact that Snowflake keeps getting better and better with no downtime is amazing. Can't wait to see more!
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, can't think of one, but for my specific role, I would say it's hard to know who to talk to in the company due to the growth (a good problem to have, I suppose). It constantly changes making partner relationships difficult with Snowflake Sales Directors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently the big thing we are seeing is with MPP migrations coming up on end-of-life. Snowflake is the clear choice to maximize data warehousing and cloud benefits.
Innovation at it's finest
What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake didn't just develop a cutting edge DW and stop there. Instead they ask "how can I make this better for our customers and partners" on a daily basis. These innovations show and contribute to the Blizzard that is Snowflake!
What do you dislike about the product?
With the exceptional growth of the company, it's difficult to determine who is who, what rep is over each area, and who to reach out to to solve a problem. But this is a great problem to have - a massive growth spurt!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are helping companies ditch legacy platforms and establish best practices for moving to the cloud. Our mutual customers have been most blown away by the scalability and query speed Snowflake provides.
Just like any other database
What do you like best about the product?
The SQL standards followed by snowflake matches the ANSI standards and it's similar to majority of RDBMDS systems in terms of SQL syntax.
What do you dislike about the product?
Connectivity with other computing platforms like Spark or it's Python3 connector which i found major issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We created a warehouse of petabytes in snowflake, where we use it right for the complete data pipeline an ETL. We also built some interesting analytics app on top of it using it's Python connector and now having issues with it's Python3 connector.

I am a pretty new user of Snowflake so right now I am still in a bit of a honeymoon phase maybe as I dont have anything I particularly dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have mostly used it to be the powering force behind some tableau dashboards. It has sped up and changed the way we use our data immensely.
