A&I Data Services Big Data Solution
Snowflake is hosted on both AWS and Azure now. Snowflake supports encryption at rest
and transit by default and is compatible with various BI and ETL tools in the market. Structured
and Semi Structured data can be loaded into Snowflake and can be queried using SQL. Persisting
results from the “Result Cache” can be used to reduce the execution time for repeating queries.
Time travel feature is enabled for 1 day, by default which can be extended up to 90 days with
additional charge for that. With this feature, dropped tables can be restored. Fail safe feature is
available to store the data for 7 days from the day retention period ends. Snowflake supports all
the needs of a data warehouse solution. It has the native ability to ingest unstructured data. The
services and support is completely handled by Snowflake. The main feature of Snowflake is that
it provides unlimited user concurrency. High concurrency, zero-clone copy, time travel etc. are
some key features of Snowflake.
