Snowflake - Next generation cloud warehouse
Best cloud data warehouse platform at the moment. Love, everything Snowflake has to offer. Easy to build pipelines, data sharing from production to non-prod in seconds, 0-copy cloning in 0-seconds :), amazing time travel, robust security, near real-time data ingestions, flexible compute power, and all possible compliance and certifications we can expect (Hippa/PCI/sox etc) indeed "built for the cloud"
PROSSnowflake is easy to onboard and adopt, implement, easy to use.
CONSLimited monitoring capability and data analytics features.
Reason for choosing Snowflake
Better pricing and support :)

Snowflake, Unique just like Us
My overall experience with Snowflake has been a pleasurable one. Though there have been some frustrations at times I have learned and overcome and become a better programmer, and SQL developer for it. I feel like Snowflake is an old friend now.
PROSThe thing that I like most about this software is really if you can think it you can do it with Snowflake. I mean as long as it deals with data. I first started at my company using oracle and I didn't stick with that for long because we adopted snowflake. When we started using snowflake my knowledge of SQL just jumped sky high. Instead of just selecting from tables, I was using cte's and partitions and all of that fun stuff. Snowflake made it super easy to understand and learn. The ability it has to handle the amount of columns that it does is amazing.
CONSThere is a little bit of a learning curve to get the hang of it. But on the surface it is just like any other sql language and you just have to figure out the different quirks that it has. I wish it could give data instantaneously and read my mind on what I want but that is pretty much impossible so I'm going to stick with what I have.
Reasons for switching to Snowflake
I made the switch because of the fact that my company was switching and I had to adapt or I was going to be left out in the cold.

Save your Data
I really like the fact that i can store my data in snowflake and use that to create visualizations in tableau.
PROS1 - I like the way it stores the big data. 2 - Convenient to connect with tableau for visualizations.
CONS1 - Costly if data is too big 2 - You can't own the data, you have to depend on the Data Engineering team.

Great Data Warehouse Product
This is a very good product. I've had a very good experience with Snowflake.
PROSIf you know SQL this is an easy product to use. I love that it can search on JSON and it allows us to create very custom User Defined Functions that can use multiple languages such as JS and Python as well as SQL.
CONSSetting up the permissions can be confusing and complicated.
Reason for choosing Snowflake
We chose Snowflake since it has a better feature set and was much more stable.
