The UI could do with improving, however there are tools like DBeaver that sit on top that solve this issue.

Snowflake will capture a big Data Market soon

  • July 15, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is a growing Data Warehouse Storage and Analytics Technology which will capture a big Data Analytics market soon. Snowflake is a cloud-based technology that has reduced a significant burden from the customer in terms of hardware maintenance, replacing failed components, patch upgrade, 24*7 DBA support, etc.

The best about Snowflake is its unique architecture. I worked on many DW Tools and found it better, among others with below reasons -
1. No hardware maintenance (it reduces Datacenter maintenance cost)
2. Architecture is simple and easy to understand
3. Cost is directly dependent on the system usage, less load - Payless and vice-versa.

Most of the DBA work automated with its architecture -
1. Statistics collection
2. Query Optimization
3. Taking backup and maintenance
4. Warehouse auto-suspend and auto-resume.

Cool features added in Snowflake -
1. Data Sharing
2. Data Marketplace
3. Data Masking
4. Zero-Copy Cloning
5. Time Travel
6. Fail-Safe
7. Structured and Unstructured data Storage and reading capabilities
8. And many more features

I would surely recommend the companies that if you are planning to switch from the current DW env to another platform, do your POC on Snowflake once to know its benefits.
Snowflake provides good customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, Snowflake has provided alerts set up only for resource monitoring if they can add the capabilities to generate custom alerts like sending notification on database size threshold increased, etc., through monitoring tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Few Snowflake features have saved DBA time in terms of taking data backup, creating dev, test environment using its zero-copy cloning features

I have worked extensively on Snowflake to create datalakes from scratch.

What do you like best about the product?
Snowflake is highly scalable. The interface provided by snowflake is very comfortable to use. The query rofiles give very important insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some internal errors which frequently come so the environment is not very stable as yet. PLSQL stored procedures are not yet provided.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are replacing the existing enterprise database with snowflake to achieve scalability in analysis.
