While data is a core asset for modern enterprises, technology’s ability to scale has created a surge of big data. Managing and storing that data has become a critical function for modern business operations. Choosing a data platform that can handle massive volumes of big data, high speeds, and reliability — not to mention the ease of use, is top of mind. Most enterprises are already using a cloud data platform, but many are evaluating whether a data migration might be needed in order to stay competitive.

One of the most popular data platforms is Snowflake, which operates as a cloud data warehouse and is heralded for its ability to support multi-cloud infrastructure environments. Snowflake is a data warehouse built on top of the Amazon Web Services or Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure and allows storage and computing to scale independently.
