About Snowflake
Snowflake was created in 2012 by Benoit Dageville, Thierry Cruanes, and Marcin Zukowski. It was designed to address the limitations of traditional data warehouses by providing a scalable, cloud-native solution for data storage and analytics.
Strengths of Snowflake include its scalability, ease of use, and high performance for complex queries. Weaknesses involve its cost structure, which can become expensive with high usage, and potential data latency issues. Competitors include Amazon Redshift, Google BigQuery, and Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics.
